Re: [touch-events] Specify what browsers do on non-touch devices

Bumping once more in light of Firefox's current decision to enable TE 
on non-touch devices (see 
https://twitter.com/FxSiteCompat/status/808779763804471296 and 
https://www.fxsitecompat.com/en-CA/docs/2016/touch-event-support-has-been-re-enabled-on-windows-desktop/).
 @rbyers is it worth drafting out both an informative note 
("traditionally browsers only exposed TE on actual touch devices") as 
well as a more specific guidance on what a UA should do in terms of 
disabling TE cleanly if the UA so chooses (i.e. whether the whole API 
should simply not be there, of it the API should be there but throw a 
specific type of error if an authors tries to use it, etc)?
