"Create an input source" doesn't add the source to the map

[grokys]

Consider the following:

• An action sequence with the id of "default keyboard" is sent
• Perform actions is invoked
  • extract an action sequence is invoked
  • process an input source action sequence is invoked
  • "6. Let source be the result of trying to get or create an input source given input state, type and id." is invoked
  • get or create an input source is invoked
  • create an input source is invoked and a new input source returned. NOTE: this is not specified as being added to the input state map
  • Back in process an input source action sequence: 3. "Otherwise, if type is "key" let action be the result of trying to process a key action with parameters id, and action item." is invoked
• Dispatch actions is invoked
• Dispatch tick actions is invoked
• "3. Let source be the result of get an input source given input state and input id."
• The input source created above was not added to the input state map

[grokys]

In fact I see that "add an input source" is only referenced in:

§ 12.5.1 Element Click
§ 12.5.3 Element Send Keys

So I'm not sure exactly what should be adding input sources for actions... The documentation for "input sources" says:

Each input source has an input id which is stored as a key in the input state map.

So I assume that implicitly means that create an input source should add the source to the map? But that conflicts with "Element Send Keys" which explicitly adds the input source to the map:

11. Let source be the result of create an input source with input state, and "key".

12. Add an input source with input state, input id and source.

Another question is: where should the input source created in process an input source sequence be removed? Again, "remove an input source" is only referenced in "Element Click" and "Element Send Keys".

EDIT: looks like input sources for actions shouldn't be removed until "Release Actions" is called.

Another problem:

• Let source be the result of trying to get or create an input source given input state, type and id.

Conflicts with:

• If source is not undefined and source's type is not equal to type, or source is a pointer input source, return error with error code invalid argument.

i.e. it will fail for pointer actions?

Another problem:

process an input source action sequence can potentially be called multiple times from extract an action sequence, with differing types. If extract an action sequence should indeed add the source to the map, then this conflicts with:

• If source is not undefined and source's type is not equal to type, or source is a pointer input source, return error with error code invalid argument.

As it would require an multiple input sources to be created with the same id but different types.
