July 29th F2F Agenda Item - Non-cancelable event 1of 2 #23

Previously we talked about the beforeInput event not being cancelable during a composition. With the splitting of the event into one part in the ui-events spec and the other in the Input events spec, the cancelable attribute is in the ui events spec and the isComposing is in the Input events spec. In the ui-events spec the event is marked as always being cancelable. Will this work, or do we need to specify that it is not cancelable during composition?

Update the UIEvents spec with cancellability of beforeInput in composition cases

Note: 140 is now #17

Proposal was to make beforeinput !cancelable during composition. Except for the last one which has a different inputType (something like "finalComposition") and is cancelable=true.

If canceled, the DOM goes back to what it was before compositionstart. Issue #140 covers investigating whether this is possible on Android.

The investigation was finished and the spec has been updated accordingly now.
