Re: [csswg-drafts] CSS :active and JS mousedown preventDefault complication

Lovely.  This is why we need actual specs instead of handwaving.  With a processing model, instead of handwaving.  ;)

Does it get affected by things like user-select, SVG bits that affect event targeting, etc?  I mean, it must at least be happening after the event target is determined, right?

I am not wedded to the current Firefox behavior, and am willing to change it, but not willing to change it twice.  Hence it would be good to have a clear spec for what the behavior should be.

It would help if you were running the actual testcase I linked, which has no random numbers and the behavior I described.  Including in ESR52.
