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

@staktrace what do you think of the proposal in https://github.com/w3c/touch-events/issues/64#issuecomment-327671775 as a better way to balance the compat / functionality concerns on non-mobile touchscreen devices?  If we can prove that the compat tradeoff is reasonable by [shipping this in Chrome](https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/blink-dev/KV6kqDJpYiE), do you think Firefox would be interested in doing the same thing (to address the [compat issues](https://github.com/w3c/touch-events/issues/64#issuecomment-266900006) you mentioned).

@patrickkettner, any thoughts for Edge?  Given you guys don't enable touch events on desktop at all at the moment, if we can show that this limited form of enabling is web compatible (enabling without the discouraged feature detection APIs doesn't break any sites which that work when fully disabled) might you be interested?
