Release Requirements
- No performance regressions on non-touch-event pages.
- Acceptable performance of touch events in content. (Need more precise criteria?)
- Sidebar (or some alternate form of navigation) is still accessible on pages that use touch events.
Next Steps
- Finish patches and get reviews.
- Write automated tests and do manual compatibility testing.
- Experiment with different ways of allowing sidebar panning.
- Performance testing and optimization.
- Send spec feedback to W3C Web Events working group.
