"Merge Duplicates"/"Edit Parent Tasks"/"Edit Subtasks" dialogs: Clicking on a task title closes the dialog instead of selecting the task
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

In the "Merge Duplicates" dialog, clicking on a task title closes the dialog instead of selecting the task.

Until a recent Phabricator upgrade, you could click on either the red area (task title) or the blue area ("Select" button) to select a task to mark as duplicate / merge into:

Today, clicking the blue area still works, but clicking the red area instead immediately closes the entire dialog!

This is driving me mad.

I think I can reproduce this sometimes. I filed this upstream as https://secure.phabricator.com/T13363.

(This is likely originally connected to T220897.)

Thanks. So the patch fixes this by making the links not be real clickable links. I must say I kind of liked them (for opening in a new tab when I wasn't sure if I found the right task), but losing them is definitely the lesser evil for me.
