Edit button is added multiple times to text areas

[netromdk]

The edit button is added multiple times when a text area is shown/hidden etc. See the attached screenshot:

This can happen if you want to comment/edit something and click cancel to hide the text area again, for instance, and should not happen.

Thanks

BTW it happens for me in JIRA when viewing an issue and clicking "Comment" at the bottom then "Cancel" and "Comment" again. Every repetition adds a new edit button.

Can you see if this still happens on the https://github.com/stsquad/emacs_chrome/tree/div-background-image-exp branch? It works for me now.

I confirm that I observe the reported behavior at this time (with the current chrome, editing google spreadsheet). It seems like a new button is added every time I edit the cell editing line.

Atlassian's forums also have a post regarding this behavior.

@krishnoid I'm afraid that doesn't add much. I've been unable to reproduce the behaviour on the current master branch with either Google Spreadsheets or my local copy of JIRA - although the initial textarea doesn't get it's button due to being created off-screen (see https://github.com/stsquad/emacs_chrome/blob/master/javascript/textareas.js#L180) - this hack maybe outdated now.

Anyway going forward I don't think I can fix this without a proper test case (i.e. a handcrafted page of html/javascript) that reproduces the problem. References to webapps are just too much of a moving target to usefully debug.

In RoundCube this effect overlays the complete first line of the mail text field:

I am using melpa as of today and Firefox 67.0.1 under Windows.

Unfortunately I cannot find a publicly available RoundCube installation, but hopefully someone else can also reproduce this. I understand that such a setup is hard to diagnose but on the other hand I think it makes sense to at least document that this problem exists.
