We've been planning to finish the work to get Pointer Events fully implemented on all Gecko platforms. > If I'm not mistaken, Fx does not even support touch events yet (unless > you enable a special about:config flag) on touch-enabled desktops/laptops. That's correct. There are some bugs in our Windows desktop touch event implementation that we need to fix before enabling it.
