This is a replacement for the DOM 3 Events spec. The group needs to discuss the current limitation in using DOM 2 events. Also, DOMActivate does not appear in the UI Events Spec. Regarding the activate event, user agents treat click the same as activate. We should question whether we should call the table headers DOM2 name and DOM2 category. These are insufficient. Should we reference the UIEvent spec. vs. the DOM2 Event where there is overlap?
