Re: [csswg-drafts] [cssom-view] Behavior of MouseEvent.offsetX/Y with inline elements is inconsistent across browsers (#5659)

> I'm not sure if modern libraries try to work around this.

I see. You mentioned elsewhere (e.g. [here](https://discourse.wicg.io/t/mouseevent-hitclientrect-as-alternative-to-non-interoperable-mouseevent-offsetx/4979)) that this is a common source of layout thrashing. If it isn't common libraries, is it that many sites apply workarounds? Would any of the common workarounds you've seen break if all browsers moved to the currently-specified behavior? If so, do those workarounds use UA sniffing to not do it in Firefox?
