The spec says

   When an event is dispatched at a DOM node in a Document in a browsing
   context, if the event is not a load event, the user agent must also
   dispatch the event to the Window, as follows:

     1. In the capture phase, the event must be dispatched to the Window
        object before being dispatched to any of the nodes.

     2. In the bubble phase, the event must be dispatched to the Window
        object at the end of the phase, unless bubbling has been
        prevented.

Should this be limited to events that bubble?
