[Bug 25088] 'orientationchange' should fire on Window so that there can be a <body> event handler for it

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=25088

--- Comment #4 from Jonas Sicking <jonas@sicking.cc> ---
The fact that we have bugs on file doesn't mean much.

We've been reluctant to add window.orientation since the API appears to be
partially broken. It returns 0 when the device is in the "default" orientation.
If that orientation is landscape or portrait mode is device specific.

That said, if window.onorientation seems like it might fire under the same
circumstances, so we might be able to reuse that event.

But I don't feel strongly. I don't think that being able to use <body
onorientationchange="..."> provides that much value.
