Re: Requirements for PE v2

Of all the things we've discussed over the years, the one I personally
think is highest priority is:

API for requesting high-frequency movement position data. See
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014AprJun/0055.html

This is now tracked in https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/22
("Considering adding an API to get pre-coalesced points").

Anecdotally this seems pretty important for drawing scenarios (especially
pen), and is something all native platforms (Windows, Android, and most
recently iOS) have APIs for.  This is something I think we might be
interested in including in Chrome sooner rather than later.  Thoughts?
