Editor: programmatically created Editors cannot be added to Dialogs

[guest]

Firefox 2, Mac OS X

HOW TO REPRODUCE:

Go to ​http://82.230.65.68:31416/~fred/dojo/fred_samples/bug_014.html
Try to type text in the dijit.Editor

RESULT:

One cannot type text

EXPECTED RESULT:

Text can be typed, made bold, italic, etc

COMMENT:

The dijit is created in a div that is added to the dialog at later time
When removeChild is called to remove that div, the contentDocument of the iframe seems to loose its "designMode" property (in fact that contentDocument is null)

WORKAROUND:

tk gave the workaround of destroying/re-creating the toolbar, and manually calling postCreate after the dialog is shown. This causes flickers, and maybe additional issues.
The code is present in the HTML file, it just needs to be uncommented

Linked HTML file. Can be placed at the top a dojo hierarchy (ie: above the dijit directory) to locally reproduce the issue

Just a tab more info on things tried... I've tried killing all the plugin buttons in Toolbar, manually recreating them to "reconnect" their functions since none of the toolbar buttons affect the editor if you toggle designMode by hand... this had no effect... (delete editor._plugins and editor.plugins then rebuilt from src)

I've tried calling editor.close/open() (oddly enough I think this found another bug) -- doing this destroys the toolbar... and it never creates it, even with subsequent .open() calls

tried calling editor.startup, editor.toolbar.startup() the only effective solution was what is covered in the opening of this ticket...

This seems to be working now. Starting with [14713]/1.2, you could edit inside a Dialog but the toolbar was still not displayed correctly, and then finally with [21747]/1.5, the toolbar is working correctly.
