Discussed at PEWG meeting today. In summary, feels like a breaking change that may be too late to do now. Current implicit capture just for touch makes sense due to touch interface problems of single finger used for activation and scrolling etc. Authors used to it from touch events. But for mouse, this implicit capture would be unusual. Not a big ask for mouse to require authors to explicitly capture, particularly since they're used to having to do horrible hacks to do this with mouse events (attaching handlers for mousemove on body on mousedown, removing on mouseup) at least it makes it nicer in PE. Consider closing this unless we hear strong support from @NavidZ @mustaqahmed or others -- GitHub Notification of comment by patrickhlauke Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents/issues/125#issuecomment-772635604 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
