masayuki-nakano has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents: == `MouseEvent.buttons` explanation of `contextmenu` event should mention about the platform dependency == `MouseEvent.buttons` of [contextmenu event](https://w3c.github.io/uievents/#event-type-contextmenu) should mention about the platform dependency. On Windows, context menu should be opened when mouse button is released. However, on the other platforms, it may be not. Therefore `buttons` won't contain the mouse button triggering to open the context menu on Windows, but may contain on the other platforms. There is a note like: > Depending on the platform, the [contextmenu](https://w3c.github.io/uievents/#contextmenu) event may be dispatched before or after the [mouseup](https://w3c.github.io/uievents/#mouseup) event. But I think that this is not enough for `buttons`.
