Updated Editor's Draft of DOM3 Events

Hi, folks-

I just thought I'd let you know about some recent changes to the DOM3 
Events spec, which is available for review [1]:

* converted to using my proposed typographic conventions, and other 
cosmetic changes
* changed 'error' and 'abort' events to not bubble
* deprecated DOMActivate
* added description of sync/async, and started marking events as 
sync/async (there are some known mistakes, which will be fixed in the 
next draft)
* added 'trusted' property to events, first draft of trusted events 
description, and discussed trusted events where appropriate
* removed new interface-specific initialization methods, and made event 
initialization more streamlined
* added nx/ny (normalized x/y) properties on mouse events for SVG and 
CSS transforms, and a first rough draft of the nx/ny algorithm (may be 
more appropriate for an SVG/CSS spec)
