Upon closer look, I experience some trouble with your solution regarding problem 3 (as exemplified by the ui-autocomplete element):
- After having selected a city, try selecting another city. This does not work for me because the ui-autocomplete does not close the second time.
- More generally, stopping event propagation may not be the best idea. What if other plugins define event handlers for the stopped events?
- Your solution works for ui-autocomplete, and it is easy to extend to other elements/widgets if they are known in advance. But what if I want to create a SM-based component that can be used with <i>any</i> widget in it?
Thank you for your help.
