RByers has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents: == Touch-action doesn't permit direction-specific scroll AND pinch-zoom == Consider a common scenario like a long web page with an image carousel . Our guidance to developers would be to put something like 'touch-action: pan-y' on the carousel to permit custom horizontal event handling without disabling scrolling. But this can be an accessibility issue - if the user can pinch-zoom elsewhere in the document, shouldn't they be able to pinch-zoom on the carousel as well? Edge supports this with the `pinch-zoom` [touch-action token](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/windows/apps/hh767313.aspx) but we omitted that from the spec due to "pinch" being out of scope. But then we ended up referring to "continuous zooming" in normative text anyway. So why not just add a `continuous-zoom` token too?
