I don't see why we'd want compatibility with mouse events here given they're *weird*, and Firefox does something different (well, better) anyway. We should *always* fire pointer-based events regardless of element, it should be the developer's decision how to react to it. Why shouldn't I be able to drag & drop a disabled button? The `click` event is different, as it's related to "activation" rather than a pointer, so it makes sense that the element's state is taken into consideration. But even then I'd rather it was explained within the event system. As in, a disabled element could `stopImmediatePropagation` in the bubbling phase of a click event, meaning developers could still use the capturing phase if they wanted clicks. -- GitHub Notification of comment by jakearchibald Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/177#issuecomment-283071635 using your GitHub account
