Re: [w3c/uievents] May the state of modifier keys influence MouseEvent.button? (#184)

The spec does not currently have an opinion about behaviors where different browsers have some historical implementation differences. In general, we're working toward having a more algorithmic approach to specs (which will prevent these differences in the future), but UIEvents is an old spec that covers features with a lot of baggage that will be challenging to clean up.

However, we do want to (a) document the differences better, and if possible, (b) come to general agreement on what the behavior should be.

Thanks for the comment. I'm leaving this bug open to track updating the spec to provide a better description of how different browsers handle modifier keys for mouse clicks.
