Nonsense behavior of disabled resizable textarea

Reported by teo8...@gmail.com, Nov 28 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.89 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
http://jsbin.com/rexerut/edit?html,output

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. visit http://jsbin.com/rexerut/edit?html,output
2. Click and drag the resize handle on the bottom right corner of the textarea

What is the expected behavior?
you should be able to resize the textarea

What went wrong?
you cannot resize the textarea.

If the textarea is not disabled, then it works as expected.
There's no reason why a textarea shouldn't be resizable "because" it is disabled, and even if there was a reason, then the resizing handle shouldn't be shown in the first place.

Also if the contents don't exceed the textarea, and it has no scrollbars, then it works as expected (whether it's disabled or not).

Complete nonsense.

Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? Yes I'm not entirely sure but I think it did before

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 62.0.3202.89  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 
Flash Version: 

This is a HUGE usability issue, crippling many websites.
