Hey all, In mobile-spec we have a series of tests checking an API available at navigator.orientation [1]. From what I can tell / remember, this is something that we support as a legacy, as neither Android or BlackBerry have it but I believe there are leftovers in iOS (before cordova-js integration) that still have this API.
I do not think it is based on any W3C spec. The closest thing I could find is something the Geolocation Working Group are drafting up, an event called device orientation [2]. My thinking is, remove this API completely. It is not part of our documentation and as far as I can tell only iOS supports it right now. Instead, set new tasks to implement the W3C deviceorientation event (or perhaps come up with a simpler, synchronous API of our own!). Thoughts?
