When handling the onChange event the currentTarget is null.
You can see an example on webpackbin here:
<DebounceInput
minLength={2}
debounceTimeout={300}
onChange={event => {
console.log("target =", event.target);
console.log("target.value =", event.target.value);
console.log("currentTarget =", event.currentTarget);
}} />Which gives you the following output after typing "test":
target = <input type="text" value data-reactid=".0.0">
target.value = test
currentTarget = null
I take it this is because the event is stored then re-dispatched later, and React nulls out the currentTarget after the initial dispatch. However this is not what I would expect because its not how the event argument normally works, you expect currentTarget to be the target you added the handler to.
