Two reasons some people don’t like “Intentions”:
      ·         http://www.w3.org/TR/web-intents/

      ·

I am not quite following why intention based invents is a problem. The
events reflect the intent of the user.

Would Input Events be confusing because we already have those in DOM

Travis, Ryosuke- you have both expressed a distaste for "Intention", can

They represent the intention of the user.

(And while I could argue with Olli over the use of device events, input
