Re: [pointerevents] Add context for popover light dismiss to click event (#542)

To me, `pointerdown` vs `pointerup` target diffs is not a sufficient signal to detect a drifting click:

Imagine a button element containing a smaller image element in its center where the `pointerdown` happens in the button to the left of the image.  Now, a `pointerup` in the button to the right of the image will make the click appear as "stationary" (because down/up have the same target) while a `pointerup` on the image will make the click appear as `drifting`.  This would be expected, right?
