Description Patrick H. Lauke 2014-03-15 23:08:04 UTC
Currently this section opens with

"Pointer capture allows the events for a particular pointer to be retargeted to a particular element other than the normal hit test result of the pointer's location."

It's implied, but possibly worth adding that this also applies to compatibility mouse events?

"Pointer capture allows the events for a particular pointer (including any compatibility mouse events) to be retargeted to a particular element other than the normal hit test result of the pointer's location."
