Philippe, Doug,

Re the Touch Events spec [TE] and its HTML5 dependency, the only part of 
HTML5 that is used is WindowProxy. (Based on LC feedback from Boris last 
month [LC-3], as part of some Web IDL bug fixes, this dependency was 
added when we replaced AbstractView with WindowProxy).

Robin mentioned the Window object tests are:

<https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/tree/master/html/browsers/the-window-object>

And, Robin reported "according to my coverage analysis Window is pretty 
decent".

Given this - for the purposes of advancing the Touch Events spec from PR 
to REC - can we assume the tests above are sufficient to satisfy the 
Touch Event's dependency on HTML5? If not, what else is the group 
required to do to satisfy this minimal use of HTML5?

-Thanks, Art
