Re: [pointerevents] Clarify coalesce events and predicted event's target (#280)

> In addition, for the affected event interfaces, you need to define the "associated dispatched event" field (so you can link it from here). And presumably you need to set that field when dispatching an event that has events associated with it.

@annevk we wanted to avoid having another idl definition for these events. That was intentional from the beginning so that developers could just pass these events to their handlers and it would still work despite checking for types and whatnot. Additionally there was no plan to expose that "associated dispatched event" in the idl to the javascript at this point in time. My understanding is that if we define that idl technically js will have access to that field and also can type check the coalesced/predicted events. Right?
