Is there any way to process the messages generated by the touch events
in Android's version of WebKit? On iPhone, this is done with
additional events (ontouchstart, ontouchend, ontouchmove). I
understand these are not available in Android. I have tried (on the
emulator) monitoring the onmousedown, onmouseup and onmousemove which
are implemented in base WebKit and the results were not encouraging:

- Clicking and releasing the mouse without moving it generates
onmousedown followed by onmouseup but ONLY when the mouse button is
released
- Clicking, holding for a short period of time, moving and then
releasing generates a sequence of onmousemove, onmousedown, onmouseup
(in that order) again, ONLY when the button is released
- Clicking, moving immediately and releasing does not generate any
events

This is clearly not enough for any kind of touch-based UI. Is there
some provision in the DOM, or a <meta> tag for capturing the missing
events?

Thanks in advance,
...Max...
