1. Let's not chase every browser's UA change. UAs _suck_ and I'd rather leave ours alone now that we fought through the debate. 2. "Touch" is way too ambiguous. I have no desire to add "Touch" to our smartphone UA as well - just for completeness. Using "Touch" alone for tablets or desktops with touchscreens is not interesting to me. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
