What we should make sure of is that the conformance on specifications
section clearly states what is allowed and what is not so that we don't
end up with 'mousemove' being incompatible in two different languages.
At the same time, we should ensure that specifications are not going
for a slightly different name just because they don't like that the
event doesn't bubble or whatever.
So what do you propose specifications do if the DOM3 event event doesn't
meet their needs?
I think that's a separate issue. We need some guidelines for
specifications on that. Personally I think everyone should be free to make
up new events as long as they put them in a namespace, though they are
encouraged to ask the Web APIs WG for review, and everyone who wants a new
event to be in the null namespace must ask for permission. We just need
some formal language to handle that. That language should deal with
existing not in a namespace events as well probably.
