Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

When a message in the chat is clicked, its reaction modal starts triggering the "not allowed" cursor when the space between reactions is hovered.

What is the root cause of that problem?

A recent change uncovered a bug in PressableWithFeedback.

onPress is not a required property, but it was treated like it was. If a PressableWithFeedback instance was pressed (clicked) but onPressed was undefined, an exception was thrown. Consequently, the logic to re-enable the component (meant for the case when props.onPressed returns a promise) wasn't fired and it was left in the disabled state.

A disabled pressable has the not-allowed cursor.

ReportActionItem isn't providing onPress to PressableWithSecondaryInteraction (which forwards it to PressableWithFeedback). ReportActionItem's PressableWithSecondaryInteraction is an ancestor to the reaction picker, so the space between the reaction entries inherits the cursor style.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We should refactor the onPress callback passed to GenericPressable in PressableWithFeedback so it works correctly in all cases:

• when props.onPress is not provided (it's undefined)
• when props.onPress is provided and it's async (it returns a Promise)
• when props.onPress is provided and it's not async (it returns something else, presumably undefined)

A simple implementation that satisfies these requirements could look like this:

onPress={(e) => {
    if (!props.onPress) return;

    const onPressResult = props.onPress(e);
    if (onPressResult instanceof Promise) {
        setDisabled(true);
        InteractionManager.runAfterInteractions(() => {
            onPressResult.finally(() => {
                setDisabled(props.disabled);
            });
        });
    }
}}

Removing deploy blocker label since I don't think we need to block deploy on such a minor issue. It seems you can still react to comments so it doesn't actual break any existing behavior.
