Hi all,

This is another feedback from multiple browser vendors (Apple, Google, 
Microsoft) that got together in Redmond last Thursday to discuss editing API 
and related events.


As we discussed various aspects of composition events and beforeinput/input 
events, it became apparent that we want both composition events and 
beforeinput/input events to be defined in a single spec since the ordering of 
these events as well as what happens when their default actions are canceled or 
event propagations are stopped are interdependent among them.

Thus, we think it's better to define the basic event interface as well as the 
timing at which these events are fired in UI events, and define `editType` and 
associated default editing actions in a separate editing spec.

That is, we suggest merging everything in:
http://w3c.github.io/editing/input-events.html
into
https://w3c.github.io/uievents/

except the parts that define the list of values for `editType` and `data` 
(since the content of `data` depends on the type of `editType`), and define the 
latter two in the editing spec that defines these properties' values as well as 
their behaviors:
http://w3c.github.io/editing/contentEditable.html
