Description Dimitri Glazkov 2012-01-31 00:26:17 UTC 
Viewlink defines quite a few intereseting exceptions:

We should study those and see if we should adopt them.

Whoa, great stuff!

onabort
onchange ?
onreset
onresize
onscroll
onselect

All these look like they should be stopped at the boundary.
Comment 2 Dimitri Glazkov 2012-03-13 20:52:41 UTC 
I added these to the spec: http://dvcs.w3.org/hg/webcomponents/rev/971076c91f4a

Please complain loudly if this seems wrong.

I think "selectstart" is an IE-only event--you may not need to include that in the spec  :)

Well, WebKit implements it too: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/source/search?q=selectstartEvent. I can remove, but it might be good to have interop here.

Interesting. Ok, thanks for checking--your call :)
