Hi all, Alexey appears to strongly dislike the name of this API specification ( http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webevents/raw-file/default/gamepad.html), so much so that he is blocking development of the API behind a flag. As a reminder, this API is being developed through the WebEvents WG jointly with

I don't think it's worth blocking development of the feature based solely on the name. I'd recommend sorting out the name issue before enabling the feature by default though, because that's the point in time after which changing the name will become painful. If the name is really a sticking

Its obvious that a naming nit is a not a good reason to block development behind a flag. Is the the true basis for that r- expressed in this comment? The concern here as I understand it is that providing low level access to every possible controller creates fragmentation, with purportedly HTML

Given that Gecko is implementing the unprefixed getItems (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591467), I don't see benefits in implementing with webkit prefix. Also, it's still under a compile-time flag so we can prefix it before enabling the flag by default if we strongly feel like
