I have a question regarding the draft for the DOM3 Events Spec:

If preventDefault is called on the keydown event, does this also cancel 
the following textInput event?


Example:
The key A is pressed in a text input field. preventDefault is called on 
the keydown event.  Is A displayed in the text field?  Is the textInput 
event fired?


What if preventDefault is called on the mousedown event. Is the click 
event fired?


These questions are inspired by

Thanks,

Christian
