Oh well, it was tight on time, and there's enough items on the 3.10 plate, glad to get this moving anyways. > It sounds reasonable > to me, as far as the event controllers themselves are concerned.

Right, I didn't get too deep in there, essentially an unchanged widget would still get to receive and handle events as they did previously, even if a controller acknowledges the touch sequence (and this action doesn't trigger grabs, etc), no event blocking would happen at the capture phase. This however could just need minor adaptions, the ::ownership-claimed signal could be considered another "drop your interaction with this device/touch id" notification as ::grab-notify and GdkEventGrabBroken essentially are, even if a widget doesn't make use of event controllers itself. Widgets interested in this will likely have similar codepaths already.
