Description Damian Jansen 2013-10-23 22:21:04 UTC
Description of problem:
The dialog that allows a project maintainer to add another maintainer is poorly defined and implemented. It allows the user to accidentally add other users and doesn't behave intuitively in filling out the visible user details.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.x

How reproducible:
Easy always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in as an admin or maintainer
2. Go to a project
3. Click Manage Maintainers
4. Click Add
5. Enter the name of an existing user, but don't select them
   - Note that they show in a list, but no other details are filled in
6. Press Enter
   - Note that nothing appears to happen
7. Press Enter again - user assuming enter will show them the user details

Actual results:
Nothing appears to happen in the foreground, but the user is added as a maintainer in the background

Expected results:
The foreground dialog should be filled in. Only on clicking Add should a user be added.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Damian Jansen 2013-11-04 03:35:38 UTC
Also, attempting to add a user that is already a maintainer provides no feedback to the user.

Comment 2 Alex Eng 2014-06-18 03:06:38 UTC
Is this still an issue with user interface has been changed since 3.3.0?

Comment 3 Damian Jansen 2014-07-07 03:18:52 UTC
Negative. Closing.
