Re: [touch-events] Should spec mention “touch adjustment" behavior?

Yeah, touch targeting stuff was one of the things that was intentionally called out of scope in the Pointer Events WG charter for that reason.

It seems helpful to let devs be aware that browsers do this. So a non-normative note to this effect seems reasonable (note that you want to avoid normative terms like "MAY" to be safe here). There are other places in Pointer Events where we did such things.

How about this text:

Some implementations alter the target element to correct for the imprecision of coarse input. Therefore, the target element may not necessarily be the element directly at the coordinates of the event. The methods used to target/disambiguate coarse input are out of scope for this specification.
