Re: [whatwg/dom] Event delegation via EventListenerOptions (#215)

> what jQuery and probably others do is more like looking for event.target.closest(delegateSelector). Just wanted to stress that.

No, see [my comment above](https://github.com/whatwg/dom/issues/215#issuecomment-213199412). The user's own event handler often uses `.closest()` to find some enclosing element, but jQuery itself walks up the DOM tree and finds all matches.
