Div container's context menu does not work for divs that are created via source

[Sa'ar Zac Elias]

To reproduce

• Open a new editor and switch to source mode
• Insert this code:

  <div>Text</div>
  

• Go to WYSIWYG mode and right-click inside the div

The div container's context menu does not work.

[Frederico Caldeira Knabben]

This is by design. The fact is that we're talking about "containers". In the exemplified HTML the <div> there is acting more like a paragraph than a container.

Inside CKEditor we consider a container only divs that contain other block elements. For example, the context menu will work if you load the following:

<div>
    <p>Text</p>
</div>

In this case we can safely remove the container and the contents will still fit well in the document structure. It's just a conceptual matter.

In the way you're describing it, you are instead looking for a generic element editor, which can change properties of "any" element, including divs. We're not talking about a container anymore. This feature should be handled in a different ticket.
