Details

On Fennec we had some special code to prevent isElementClickable from returning true on some elements (notably the body element, Bug 743279) [1]. We then used isElementClickable to determine whether or not to fire haptic feedback on a click. Having the flag let us prevent haptic feedback on every tap for pages that have body "click" event listeners (fairly common). I'd like to move that haptic feedback code into platform (bug 791831) so that we don't have duplication of this isClickable method, but we'll need some way to recreate that ability.
