Description Andrew Obuchowicz CLA 2019-06-07 10:13:32 EDT 
Where it occurs: Window -> Preferences -> General -> Appearance -> Label Decorations

Label Decoration descriptions are not editable, however the cursor still flashes in the description text box (giving the impression that you can modify the text).

I said "mouse cursor" but meant the bar cursor that appears to show where the user is currently typing in a text field. I appologize for the confusion.

If this gets changed/fixed, the following must still continue to work
- Select some text and copy it
- Accessibility, i.e. screen reader must be able to speak the text
- The field must be kept in the tab sequence (also needed for accessibility)
