Research direction

Start with src/Marks/Mark.tsx at the stopPropagation call linked in the issue, then reproduce the behavior with a focused input and a Slider drag handle. Determine why propagation is stopped and verify that the input receives its blur event while the slider's existing behavior remains intact.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Steps to reproduce:
Given: I have an input (unrelated to rc-slider), and a <Slider> element

  1. Click into the input. Expected: cursor blinks in input, focus is on input
  2. Click the slider drag handle
    Expected: a blur() event is called on the input
    Actual: no blur() event is called

I suspect this is because stopPropagation is called here. What is the reason for this call?

I will gladly open a PR to resolve this problem, but before I do it would be best for me to understand the problem that stopProgation is solving.

Thanks!
