As I said in my other email, I think the really important question is which focus-related events are mandatory implementation requirements, not which are or aren't deprecated. I think it would be fine to have events in the spec that aren't mandatory requirements, if there is value in defining their semantics for the implementations that do have them. Regards, Maciej (P.S. I've found Anne's input on this thread on this to be thoughtful and informative. Let's recognize that perspectives may differ, and strive to treat each other's input with respect, even when we disagree.)
