Looks like we have better (standard and consistent) alternatives for these fields even in `MouseEvent`: [`.target`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Event/target) and [`.relatedTarget`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MouseEvent/relatedTarget). Given that browsers supported `fromElement`/`toElement` only to match an old IE behavior, and they are still [not consistent](https://github.com/w3c/uievents/issues/84) after so many years, we should better avoid these fields in PointerEvent IMO. I will send a PR to spec them as undefined for PointerEvent unless there is an objection. -- GitHub Notification of comment by mustaqahmed Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/167#issuecomment-375100532 using your GitHub account
