CendioOssman has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/pointerevents: == Back and Forward buttons not specified for MouseEvent.buttons == There appears to be a de facto standard for how the back and forward button of mice are mapped to the `MouseEvent.buttons` field. I would appreciate it if this could be made de jure to avoid future bugs and confusion. It is nicely specified for `MouseEvent.button`. But unfortunately, you cannot blindly assume what that means for `MouseEvent.buttons` as the two attributes already use a differing ordering of buttons.
