Yep, which means there's no way to write code that creates a multi-element
touchlist that works on both Firefox and iOS without an ugly UA check :-(.
Since the goal for the V1 spec is interoperability, I'd vote for changing
the spec and adding this form to the Gecko implementation - but I don't
know what that means for the spec (do we have to go back to WD?). I filed
https://www.w3.org/2010/webevents/track/issues/27 to track.
