Inline editing does not render iframes

[Aldo Sarmiento]

Prerequisites:

1. Must have Iframe button enabled
2. Must be using inline editing feature

Steps to reproduce:

1. Click on Iframe button and add an iframe

Result: You will see a placeholder image representing the area the Iframe will be occupying Expected result: You should see the actual iframe being rendered inline.

I understand that for non-inline editing this functionality could make sense. However, with inline editing a user will never be able to see what the finished content will actually look like unless all editors are removed from the page.

Example:

In the case above, the user would never be able to see his embedded video unless he logs out and inline editors are not present.

Things to investigate:

• proper selection of such elements
• proper handling in plugins like find/replace
• possible issues with sites included in an iframe that e.g. have JS errors, same with flash content that can also execute JS
• using context menu on such elements

This is more feature request than a bug thus I'm changing the type.

Few more things to investigate:

• some protection against invalid URL for iframe may be needed (404 placeholder maybe)
• some protection against some malicious iframe (iframe with some malicious JS) may also be needed (encoding JS maybe)

Note: this is only v4 issue (inline editing is available in V4 only).
