I support this. I've seen occasional issues from this.  I don't have access to update this document. Doug, can you help?  My suggestion would be to:

-Update "Latest published version" to point to http://www.w3.org/TR/pointerevents/
-Add a sentence to the first paragraph the SoTD section that says "The latest published version of this document, which incorporates feedback from the Pointer Events Working Group, can be found <link>here</link>."
