Default command is triggered inside text areas

Summary

In Primefaces 7.0 (and latest), the default command is triggered even when inside a textarea. Adding a new line in the text area triggers the default command. The problem seems to be that the event target is incorrect. There is a check in place

$(e.target).is('textarea,button,input[type="submit"],a')

However, the target is not resolved to a textarea. In PF 6 this worked as expected and there was a change in forms.defaultcommand.js 7 months ago, fixing #4324.

1) Environment

• PrimeFaces version: 7.0
• Does not work in latest snapshot either
• Affected browsers: Tested in Chrome, Firefox, IE

2) Expected behavior

The default command should not be triggered when inside a textarea.

3) Actual behavior

The default command is triggered when inside a text area.

4) Steps to reproduce

Create a textarea and a commandlink with default command. Try to add a new line in the textarea, the default command is triggered.

@mertsincan Debugging this it appears in this line…

if ($(e.target).is('textarea,button,input[type="submit"],a')) {

$(e.target) is the FORM and not the TEXTAREA.
