    <thetext>hello,

when people drag something over a button
they expected to see the button clicking itself automatically after some amount of time.

for example in a tab panels view, when I want to drag something from one tab panel, to another one, I will dragover the tab-button to get it activated as a click simulation

so:

tabButtons[x].addEventListener(&quot;click&quot;, function(){ p.switchTo(x); }, true);
tabButtons[x].addEventListener(&quot;dragactivate&quot;, function(){ p.switchTo(x); }, true);

this can be implementable in the user space but would be convenient to have it as a default drag operation of the browser.

bye!</thetext>

    <thetext>
i want to drag any text into the textfield, without clicking explictly the &quot;aaa&quot; summary

in windows os (on other os its the same, i bet) if i drag data over a button and hold the drag for some amount of time, the click event is executed implicitly (and i never released the left mouse button)

&lt;details&gt;
 &lt;summary&gt;aaa&lt;/summary&gt;
 &lt;input type=text&gt;
&lt;/details&gt;

you do this every time in your browser when you want to drag drop something from tab A to tab B, of the same browser window

hope to be clear now, my english is not good :(</thetext>

Status: Accepted
Change Description: no spec change
Rationale:

Oh, I see.

You can do that today. Just put an ondragenter=&quot;&quot; handler on the &lt;summary&gt;:

   &lt;details&gt;
    &lt;summary ondragenter=&quot;parentNode.open = true&quot;&gt;...&lt;/summary&gt;
    &lt;input&gt;

    <thetext>HTML A11Y TF has said we don&apos;t need to track drag and drop bugs because they were filed before an overhaul of that part of the spec, but will review that part of the spec again.</thetext>
