Re: Browsers, Developers and Pointer Events Meeting Notes

Still see only one problem with pointer events for now which is hit-testing
on move. I think spec can be updated to add css or js option to disable it
either when capture is on or not.

Also, for now with TE it's not possible to make adequate Pull To Refresh,
it still 'll be some sort of tricky hacks. So if Safari do not want to go
forward, it's not big difference to support TE or PE, but PE is more
prefered by developers. Please, extend PE but not TE.
