ElvUI breaks shift-clicking from SpellBook into WeakAuras

Troubleshooting Steps

troubleshooting steps in issue form are counterproductive, given that this is specifically an interaction between addons...

/estatus yields this: estatus printout

WeakAuras version is the main branch checkout @ commit 7e1046f (i.e. latest alpha).

I have no idea how long this has been a problem, sorry - I didn't even realize it was a feature until yesterday 😅

Here's the bisector report I obtained when doing my own troubleshooting:

Describe the expected behavior and what actually happened?

In various places in WeakAuras Options, a user can input a link in lieu of a spell name or spell id. The intended way to use this is as a convenience, i.e. you can shift-click a spell in your spellbook to drop it into a WeakAuras editbox just like you can into the chat editbox, instead of having to manually type in the spell name or id.

Unfortunately it seems that with ElvUI enabled, this feature doesn't work anymore.

Reproducing the issue.

Ensure WeakAuras and ElvUI are enabled
Open the spellbook
open WeakAurasOptions, and create any non-group aura
Focus an editbox that is expecting a spell input (I was using the "spell known" option in the Load tab to reproduce)
shift-click any spell in the spellbook, or any node in the talents UI

Expected:

A link to the spell appears in the focused editbox, similar to what happens when you have a chat editbox focused.

Actual:

Nothing happens.
