In e464e69 I removed href='#' but I noticed that it broke some things.
Readding href serves two purposes:
- it makes links reachable with Tab key
- it makes links clickable with Enter key
The alternative to this approach was to introduce [tabindex] and [role]
attributes. But not only using tabindex=0 with <a/> is questionable,
it'd require adding a keyboard handler that'd intercept space and return
key presses and simulated link clicks. Since it's best to leave this
kind of thing to the native UI, I went with readding hrefs instead. I
believe that hash hrefs, even though being a common practice, are silly,
so I decided to settle down with empty hrefs.
As a bonus, I added a snippet that prevents middle mouse clicks from
opening such links/buttons in new tabs, which was the motivation for
e464e69.
- Hide fields that are uneditable, rather than disabling them
- Support fragmented edit privileges (e.g. roles than can edit only some
aspects of tags) - up until now the client tried to send everything at
once, which resulted in errors for such cases.
- Controller lifetime is bound to route lifetime
- View lifetime is bound to controller lifetime
- Control lifetime is bound to view lifetime
- Enhanced event dispatching
- Enhanced responsiveness in some places
- Views communicate user input to controllers via new event system
Rather than putting templates in DOM nodes, output JS functions
themselves.
This fixes transpiling for IE11, where ES6 parts of the templates
wouldn't get passed through Babel.
