Inline double click wipes and change data [Bug in demo]

[horus68]

Issue

When inline editing a field with more then one line (address) or more then one email address (opted out email) its automatically cleaned to a single line value, removing the opted out address or part of the street address

Expected Behavior

No data cleaned or automatically saved

Actual Behavior

This is an image from demo (accounts) Before edit:

and after double click (each field is saved automatically)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Enter demo
2. Enter contacts or other module
3. Double click to edit an address filed with more then one line (or an email field with opted an opted out address)
4. Its automatically saved cleaning some data (making it one line only)

Context

Critical as it changes data without any action intended by user.

Marking as a low priority for now. You should be able to refresh the page and have the other data re-appear.

Was able to replicate in 7.13.2

These kinds of inline edits are not implemented. The inline edit code treats these as simple fields, and confusion ensues.

I don't think anybody will have the patience to implement this in 2024 with v8 already released.

A simpler fix would be to disable inline edit for these aggregate fields; at least the user experience would be more reasonable.

This is probably the exact same issue that appears in many other complaints:

2146

6735

9762

All of these are "compound" fields, with more than one part.
