            Bug ID: 146637
           Summary: Synthethic click activation (ie. HTMLElement.click())
                    should not find the nearest activatable element
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML DOM

According to https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=27430 the call to click() in the testcase should only operate on the target element, which in the testcase is not activatable (an anchor lacking an href attribute). The authentic activation steps explicitly say to find the nearest activatable element, but synthetic activation (ie. HTMLElement.click()) should not.
