Re: [w3c/gamepad] Proposal for the Gamepad Interop 2027 (Issue #231)

kvnloo left a comment (w3c/gamepad#231)

The virtual-gamepad proposal could also unlock an interop metric we haven't previously been able to test reliably: input-to-JS latency.

Current Chromium already records latency from the gamepad timestamp to `gamepadrawinputchanged` dispatch. A deterministic virtual input source could make equivalent WPT/WebDriver tests possible across browsers.

I'd suggest including timestamped input injection in the test API so Interop can measure not only state correctness but delivery latency and ordering.
