586313 - add a start/end event for panning and zooming

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: Panning/Zooming, defect, P1)

Description

For automation we need to test panning (including kinetic) and zooming.  These are hard to test as these transactions take some amount of time.  To work around this we are using setTimeout(func, some_large_value);

It would be nice to have a ZoomStart, ZoomFinish, PanStart, PanFinish event that we could listen on.

flagging for 2.0 triage.  sounds like a fix will help with simplifying zoom & panning tests

well, a fix is required for the browser-chrome tests to avoid using setTimeout (which means we need to fix for an r+)

love to have for 2.0, but not blocking.

Attachment: add PanFinished event

The existing ZoomChanged event should work for this purpose.  The one caveat is that it is also dispatched during page load, so you might need to ignore it then.

This patch adds a new PanFinished event that fires when a pan (including any kinetic motion) stops.
