In our call today @scottgonzalez argued that the simplest thing is to treat stylus like mouse - send `pointerdown` / `pointerup` on hovering button press. We'd update the spec for this by removing the "pen contact" conditions in [chorded button interactions](https://w3c.github.io/pointerevents/#chorded-button-interactions). Some devices / OSes may not support such hovering button presses, and that's fine. Alternate proposal is to just send `pointermove` with changed `buttons` value. This requires more spec special cases - eg. to allow non-active pointers with non-zero `buttons`, redefine "active buttons state", etc. The key difference is in the behavior of naive applications (eg. those changing UI just on `pointerdown` events without consulting the `button`/`buttons` values). -- GitHub Notification of comment by RByers Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/14#issuecomment-223039867 using your GitHub account
