Specification
https://dom.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-document-createevent


Summary
Remove support for creating non-allowlisted event interfaces from 
document.createEvent(). After this change, these will throw NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR 
as required by the specification.


Blink component
Blink>DOM


Web Feature ID
No information provided


Motivation
The DOM spec defines an allow-list for createEvent(), but Chrome also supports 
interfaces not on this list: - AnimationEvent - Usage : 
0(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1162) - 
CloseEvent - Usage : 
0(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1227) - 
ErrorEvent - Usage : 
0(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1170) - 
IDBVersionChangeEvent - Usage : 
0(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1201) - 
KeyboardEvents - Usage : 
0.00003(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1228) - 
PageTransitionEvent - Usage : 
0(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1174) - 
PopStateEvent - Usage : 
0.000007(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1176) - 
TrackEvent - Usage : 
0(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1186) - 
TransitionEvent - Usage : 
0.012334(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1183) - 
WebGLContextEvent - Usage : 
0(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1224) - 
WheelEvent - Usage : 
0.000011(https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/1184) 
These interfaces lack init*Event() methods, making the created events unusable. 
Event constructors can be used instead (eg, new AnimationEvent()).
