Olli? Looks good to me. Possible adjustments, to make it a bit clear for readers with less background knowledge on the context: - TouchEvent are all relative to the same document that the TouchEvent + TouchEvent are all associated to the same document that the TouchEvent - was dispatched too. To implement this, user agents should maintain a + was dispatched to. To implement this, user agents should maintain a - set to the target of the touch. When all active touch points are + set to the target document where the touch was created. When all active touch points are This matches Chrome (and the new Opera Mobile beta) and I think Safari as well. Firefox I'm not sure - Presto doesn't match this behavior though. >> I'm ok with the wording being less prescriptive, but it should have >> something like the first sentence above at least (this is the key >> restriction). > > From the process perspective, if any new normative UA requirement is added, the spec will need to return to Last Call Working Draft.

It's closer to clarifying behavior that is already widely implemented. Presto doesn't do it exactly as described, but that's probably not that big of a issue. Presto allows multiple "touch-active documents", which is different from what others are doing, but hopefully nobody will rely on that behavior. > Do we have a test for this? If not, who is willing to write a test? No, we do not have a test for this. Depending on the timeframe that we need it I can commit to writing one.

Scott, what's the jQuery perspective here? Hopefully the libraries shouldn't have to care about this, but probably better to get a comment from Scott. -- Sangwhan Moon, Opera Software ASA
