test_see_link_is_disabled_en-us.acc failing - let's remove it?

[knorrium]

Hi all,

I'm doing a clean up/improvement on the action tests and noticed that test_see_link_is_disabled_en-us.acc is failing:

Scenario.......1 - Checking that some page link is disabled
    Given
            I go to "link_tests.htm" - SUCCESSFUL
    When
            #The page finishes loading - SUCCESSFUL
    Then
            I see "lnkDisabled" link is disabled - FAILED - The link with name or id lnkDisabled is enabled, when it should be disabled.

Did this scenario ever pass?

I'm running the tests against the new WebDriver driver, so maybe it is more strict/compliant than the old Selenium driver.

Accoding to the w3c [1], "The following elements support the disabled attribute: BUTTON, INPUT, OPTGROUP, OPTION, SELECT, and TEXTAREA.", so we shouldn't be testing against the A tag :)

Can I go ahead and remove this scenario (and submit a pull request)?

Thanks
