Description Arthur Barstow 2014-05-17 14:44:44 UTC 
The thread for this bug started in Dec 2013 <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2013OctDec/0074.html> and there appears to be consensus to change the type of PointerEvent.{width,height} to double <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014AprJun/0051.html>. 

Jacob also asks if tilt{X,Y} should also be double <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pointer-events/2014AprJun/0052.html>.
Comment 1 Jacob Rossi [MSFT] 2014-06-03 01:26:19 UTC 
Looks like there's consensus, so I went ahead and made this change. On the agenda to confirm during the 6/3 telecon.
