[pointerevents] Clarify how to handle removed pointer capture element (#551)

masayuki-nakano has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents:

== Clarify how to handle removed pointer capture element ==
According to #526, when the override element is removed from the DOM, the pending element should be set to `null` and according to the other Pointer Event dispatching rules, browsers shouldn't dispatch `lostpointercapture` element on the removed target when the next processing of pending pointer capture. 

However, what should happen if the node is moved to somewhere, especially when the node is moved into another document before processing the pointer capture. Should `lostpointercapture` be fired on the temporarily removed target? However, I feel it's odd that the event is fired on another document in the latter case.
