Summary

The Pointer Events Working Group made PointerEvent.getCoalescedEvents()
restricted to secure contexts 4+ years ago, which removed the API from
insecure contexts. Chrome originally shipped the old behavior and didn't
follow the spec change immediately because of compat concerns. We are now
removing it from insecure contexts because Chrome usage in insecure
contexts turned out to be very low.

Risks


Interoperability and Compatibility

Interop: This will improves Interop, making Chrome fully match Firefox (and
the spec). Compat: There is a bit of risk because the usage is non-zero
(~0.0004% as of 2024-07-16). This usage stat is expected to include
non-breaking JS enumerations.

Anticipated spec changes

Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or
interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues
in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may
introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of
the API in a non-backward-compatible way).
None
