specifically, if I have plain (non-dijit) input or textarea elements contained inside a ContentPane or BorderContainer, the mousedown events inside these elements have no effect (tested on FF2/3, dojo versions 1.1.1 as well as 1.2.0b2). The simple mark-up after the next paragraph will reproduce the problem.

We've just spent a month integrating Dojo throughout our large technical application... but at the eleventh hour, we have run into a showstopper issue with DataGrid and QueryReadStore: it's *unacceptably* slow, for no obvious reason.

For example, the first HTTP request to our Web service to fetch the first 100 rows (just 5 columns) usually takes 7 seconds. That is, the HTTP request alone takes around 7 seconds, and then there is a several-second lag after that before Dojo renders the rows. After that, HTTP requests typically take 6 to 17 seconds.
