AddedAttributeOneventname
New onevent-name attributes can be specified globally on any element
Issue: Justification for adding the "onevent-name" attribute and the other specific events and the other new global event attributes: onabort, onbeforeunload, onblur, onchange, oncontextmenu, ondrag, ondragend, ondragenter, ondragleave, ondragover, ondragstart, ondrop, onerror, onfocus, onkeydown, onkeypress, onkeyup, onload, onmessage, onmousewheel, onresize, onscroll, onselect, onsubmit, onunload.
HTML 5 makes all event handler attributes from HTML 4 that take the form onevent-name global attributes and adds several new event handler attributes for new events it defines, such as the onmessage attribute which can be used together with the new event-source element and the cross-document messaging API.
