Summary:	iOS Safari "click" events use the MouseEvent interface instead of the PointerEvent interface
Product:	WebKit	Reporter:	Jarod Gowgiel <jarod.gowgiel>

Description Jarod Gowgiel 2022-04-27 08:05:47 PDT

Per https://www.w3.org/TR/uievents/#event-type-click, a "click" event should use the PointerEvent interface. In iOS Safari, these events instead use the MouseEvent interface.

Steps to reproduce:

On iOS Safari, tap the "Target" box on https://codepen.io/JarodG/pen/qBPaVgJ. Notice: 
* pointer<type> events use PointerEvent (correct)
* touch<type> events use TouchEvent (correct)
* mouse<type> events use MouseEvent (correct)
* click uses a MouseEvent (incorrect - should be PointerEvent)
