mass-move component to LC1
Comment 2 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2011-08-10 02:00:12 UTC
A lot of those fall into one of four categories: 
 - events defined in the media section, linked to from the appendix
 - events defined in the appcache section, linked to from the appendix
 - events defined in the d&d section, linked to from the appendix
 - events that should be defined in an Interaction Events specification (currently DOM3 Events)

Are there any events in this list that do not fall into these categories?

Irrelevant. The appendix purports to by the "List of events". This is not qualified for category of event. It should list *all* events normatively defined by the specification.

I have provided (in comment #1) a list of missing events based on my review on July 13, 2011. Perhaps it has changed since then. If desired I can re-review for missing events in this list.

I just noticed the "See also media element events, MediaStream and PeerConnection events, application cache events, and drag-and-drop events" note after the table.

I'm not particularly satisfied with just a partial enumeration table in the index. I will submit (shortly) an update that incorporates these additional events into the table (and removes the redundant DOMContentLoaded entry).
Comment 6 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2011-12-02 18:25:56 UTC
I do not think it would be good to have to maintain multiple tables whenever I change the media events (e.g.). Also, note that not all these tables have the same set of columns.
