Description Vyacheslav Matva 2014-02-19 10:02:14 UTC 
Interface WeelEvent inherits from MouseEvent, but dictionary WheelEventInit (UIevents) doesn't from dictionary MouseEventInit. It looks inconsistent.
I'm not sure if it is bug or not.
If no - maybe adding Note section in the spec would help to avoid confuse of readers.

Looks like a pretty clear bug to me.  Certainly in Gecko's implementation the WheelEventInit inherits from MouseEventInit.  Otherwise you can't properly initialize the event.
Comment 2 Gary Kacmarcik 2014-03-05 00:32:49 UTC 
Fixed - respec requires a space before the ':' when inheriting.
