I would suggest that element.setPointerCapture(id) should only be possible in response to an event dispatched to that element from pointer#id. This solves the iframe and even same document issues ensuring that capture is only occurring for elements that are being interacted with. In the rare cases where a developer may need to capture events from an area distant from the control they are conceptually related to then the event handler must be placed at some parent node, e.g. the document.body. If that suggestion is followed, then I do not think a sandbox attribute for allow-pointer-capture is necessary because the iframe contents will only be able to enter capture when they are interacted with and capture will be released when user interaction ceases (pointer exits the active buttons state). -- GitHub Notification of comment by scheib Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/16#issuecomment-271952809 using your GitHub account
