Re: [w3c/uievents] Clearify whether `mouseover`, `mouseout`, `mouseenter` and `mouseleave` are fired or not fired when the target is removed by `mousedown` or `mouseup` (Issue #359)

Hello there 👋 

_quick derived use-case_ → what about one of the descendant, which was absolutely positioned, and thus visually not over the element boundary, is removed from the DOM. The pointer did not move, and technically the element is not underneath it.

I would expect the `mouseleave` to be fired in this case. Am i right? (spoiler it is not fired as of today)
