Re: [pointerevents] Multi-pen support and persistent pointerId (#353)

Another question that came up is when (i.e. for what devices / OS's) this would apply. My understanding was that we should have a `deviceId` for any device in which the same pointer can be known from one contact to the next. I suspect this means we may not expect a `deviceId` for a touch coming from a particular device since a subsequent touch may or may not be from the same "pointer" (i.e. finger), in which case it may be that we want the name to suggest something about the contact, rather than "device" which suggests something about the device which was contacted with.
