I would not be surprised if vendors already use the "DOM Manipulation" task source as the default task source and I wonder if the specification should encourage that at some extent. 91482 1 ian 2013-07-31 21:35:18 +0000 If there's no ordering correlation between when your event fires and anything else, then you should invent a new one. The only reason two events should use the same event source is if they are in some way required to fire in a predictabel order. 95268 2 ian 2013-10-23 22:17:30 +0000 Please reopen this if you disagree or if I missed the point somehow. Thanks.
