For what it's worth, in WebKit we support these events (DOMActive, DOMFocusIn and DOMFocusOut) solely for reasons of spec compliance and compatibility with other engines. If we determine that they are not necessary for compatibility with existing content, they end up dropped from the relevant specs, and other engines remove (or refrain from adding) support, then we'd probably remove them as well. I can't speak definitively for the whole project but that is my sense of most people's thinking. Regards, MaciejReceived on Sunday, 26 July 2009 21:02:21 UTC
