Re: [pointerevents] Consider a simple API for low-latency pointer trails (#204) from Daniel Libby via GitHub on 2019-10-02 (public-pointer-events@w3.org from October to December 2019)

The native Windows API does not yet exist and is currently work-in-progress &mdash; however, the proposed Web API exposure maps closely to how we expect this to be exposed for Windows (a method for setting 'style' properties, a method for communicating the last point rendered, and a method for communicating pen input points as they arrive). 

The work to create a public API is about exposing this pen tip trail rendering functionality that is currently an implementation detail and encapsulated behind the [InkPresenter](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/Windows.UI.Input.Inking.InkPresenter) and DirectInk family of APIs on Windows.

We should have more updates regarding the Windows API in the next couple of weeks.
