Re: WebEvents-ISSUE-11 (interface-names): Need to agree on the names of the Interfaces in the Touch Events spec [Touch Events spec]

If possible, we should rename the TouchPoint interface to just "Touch" 
and use "document.createTouch" as the name of the TouchPoint constructor 
(see ISSUE-8).

This improves interoperability with content that uses 
(document.createTouch) or (window.Touch) for feature detection.  This 
appears to be a common pattern in public content.  Examples:
