Re: [pointerevents] Stylus eraser: should it be a new pointerType instead of a button state?

Interesting.  Maybe the biggest question here is "should pressing the 
eraser button be distinguishable from using a pen inverted".  I assume
 there are art use cases where the user does really expect for these 
to be different operations, right?  Does anyone know if apps like 
Photoshop these differently today?

If we did introduce a new "eraser" `pointerType`, would we also use a 
different `pointerId` (and so get a leave/enter pair when the pen is 
flipped)?
