[Bug 25655] Proposal for UIEvent "role" property

https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=25655

--- Comment #2 from caitp <caitpotter88@gmail.com> ---
I've been looking over the IndieUI proposals, and I think it covers some of
this, but not all of it, and not necessarily very well.

Adding new event types seems like a non-solution which complicates things
further. Instead, annotating existing events with a role for their particular
UI interaction, and providing a way to listen to events filtered based on the
annotated interaction, seems much simpler, and easier to polyfill.

But I suppose discussions about that would be better suited for the IndieUI WG.

But it's good that there's at least an interest in working with high-level
interactions rather than low-level inputs, so that's great.
