What about the scope is unclear? I feel that the Scope section of the
spec and the draft charter outlines what we hope to address.

I was indeed aware of your feedback (that you felt the name was
unclear, as far as I understood it), but after discussing during a WG
meeting, we haven't thought of a better name. If you have any
suggestions, I'm sure all would be open to an improved name.

I apologize for not publicly acknowledging that we have not yet
addressed the issue you've raised. I have opened an issue on your
behalf: http://www.w3.org/2010/webevents/track/issues/24

Again, the goal is to attempt to gather feedback from developers at
this stage, with work done behind a flag so as to reduce any possible
negative impact on WebKit. The hope is that we will learn more.
Perhaps we'll come up with a better name too!
