Description Cynthia Shelly 2011-08-04 01:56:24 UTC
"Unregister all event listeners registered on the Document node and its descendants." 

I believe this would include AT products that are watching the DOM.  Is that correct?  Can we add a note to that effect?
Comment 1 Michael[tm] Smith 2011-08-04 05:34:33 UTC
mass-move component to LC1
Comment 2 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2011-08-06 07:21:32 UTC
What would ATs have to do with this? Their use of DOM event listeners is an implementation detail, it's not part of the Web platform.
