Re: [pointerevents] [touch actions] handwriting manipulation type to distinguish panning (#516)

> It doesn't seem fine. Since one can't detect whether handwriting is supported or not, part of the page would be just unusable.

Whether handwriting is supported or not, that part of the page would not be scrollable. I get that you're making an argument that they set handwriting because they assumed that you'd want to write in that area, but there's no difference in terms of scrolling functionality just as if `touch-action: none` had been specified. Developer documentation should encourage specifying `touch-action: handwriting pan` if both actions should be allowed.

There is a separate question of priority. E.g. even if both actions are allowed can you scroll over an area that accepts handwriting.
