  1. Inline Edit

Description

In implementations where inline editable text has an associated label, the label should be clickable to activate the inline edit field. This is similar to how web forms should behave: clicking on the label should put a focus / edit cursor inside the associated text field.

The interaction makes sense and visually obvious, however how is this interaction expressed properly through markup to maintain accessibility since inline edit implementations are not traditional text fields?

    The more general question is:
    Is it possible to activate an inline edit component using an additional control (as well as keeping the default behaviour)?
    The example to illustrate this is the label / field form example mentioned in the above bug.

    Not an issue with the component.
