<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Reading over the explainer (github
link), this looks a lot like an HTML mousedown/mousemove or
touchstart/touchmove set of events. So (when running in a
browser), is there any substantial difference between the two? I
am not counting differences in the output coordinate system
(pixels vs. scaled units). If no, then why introduce a new node
and events for something that already exists. If yes, please
explain what problem this solves that HTML's event system does
not.</div>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Independent of the above, how would
this work in an stereo immersive environment (headset)?</div>

This is an important but currently not available feature which cannot
be implemented with a Proto, at least I cannot think of a way to do.
Any feedback will be welcome. Actually, I have a couple comments
myself in a follow-up message.
