Details

Testcases for Pointer Events are the major callers of this function. However, as what we mentioned in Bug 1299199, we now are forbidding directly synthesizing Widget Pointer Events to Gecko, we should try to remove the related code entirely. Bug 1299199 removes it from mochitest_support_external.js, which is only used by testcases for Pointer Events. In this issue, we are investigating all the rest callers of `synthesizePointer()` in EventUtils,js, and then decide whether or how to modify the current code in EventUtils.js.
