Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Pointerevent extension (#346)

FYI @smaug---- @patrickhlauke

The coalesced events or predicted events aren't really dispatched events. We wanted to avoid defining a new structure to avoid extra complexity. So we used the same event structure for simplicity and defined a bunch of attributes in this spec to be no-op (such as stopPropagation) or return default value.

But at the same time I don't want to just add all sort of hooks which makes the specification all more complex.
Do you think changing the type of these events to some other newly defined type is easier then than just adding all sort of hooks in the DOM spec? Obviously the new type will not have target or path() or composedPath or anything. Again the goal is to not over complicate this and add hooks in other specs that are only used by this single spec.
