Ref T13302. In at least some browsers (including Safari and Chrome), when you write this:

<a href="#">...</a>

...and then access <that node>.href, you get http://local-domain-whatever.com/path/to/current/page# back.

This is wonderful, but not what we want. Access the raw attribute value instead, which is # in all browsers.

• In Safari, Chrome, and Firefox:
• Clicked "Edit Subtasks" from a task.
• Clicked "Select" buttons to select several tasks.
• Before: Clicking these button incorrectly closed the dialog (because of D20573).
• After: Clicking these buttons now selects tasks without closing the dialog.
