I know we just pushed it to stable but on hindsight I wish I fought
more against it and we didn't.
The code was supposed to remove the 300ms delay on certain devices for
clicking to make the device feel more responsive.
I would now like to propose we kill it.
It has rendered IE8 unusable as well as any device which supports both
touch events and mouse events (e.g. BlackBerry Bold 9900)
Modern browsers are abandoning this sort of code however.
ios8 [1] has no need for it, neither does Chrome mobile [2]
I've drafted a patch to remove this [3] but first I need your okay about that.
At very least we should punt it back to beta and make this code better.
Thoughts?
