I hope that it's not just for "very" experienced developers though. I'd like to believe that the easy-to-use frameworks of the future would do this by default so that even the least experienced developers just never need to think about it. I'm not sure an API on document is the best pattern though - it implies that the decision can be made for the page as a whole, when often a page is built out of components with different expectations/assumptions. Maybe it should be a CSS property instead? Or maybe it should be a preventMouseEvents() method on TouchEvent? -- > @nekrtemplar <https://twitter.com/nekrtemplar> >
