Bug ID: 59603
Summary: VisualEditor: Pasting ==Rich text headings== into the
caption cannot be de-formatted
Product: VisualEditor
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected],

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Intention:
Add a caption to an image without having to type out the name by hand.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add an image in VisualEditor (e.g., an image of a person). Open the caption
dialog.
2. Go to another window (e.g., an article about the person) and copy a =Name=
from the article title.
3. Paste the rich text into the caption.
Actual Results:
The pasted text retained rich formatting. It is not possible to remove the
=Heading= formatting. Only '''text''' <s>formatting</s> can be added or
removed in that dialog. So if you copy the article title from [[George
Washington]] and paste it into the caption box, then it produces this wikitext:
= <span dir="auto">George Washington</span> =
and there is no way to remove the formatting.
Expected Results:
That either you could remove the formatting, or ideally, that the caption box
would strip the unwanted formatting automagically. There's no obvious reason
why someone would need or want a ==Heading== of any level in a caption.
Reproducible: Didn't try
Confirmed in Safari 6 and Firefox 26
