Re: [g-a-devel]EditableText exported when keyboard and mouse edit doesn't work

Peter,

I had naively assumed that not editable meant that none of the AtkEditable 
interfaces should apply. This seems to be wrong.

I have had a look at the AtkEditable interface and the copy method seems to be 
the only one which we would want to work.
