Bug 11395 – allow the SVG pointer-events CSS property in HTML

• Component: CSS
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Timothy Hatcher]

This property should be allowed in HTML to make elements transparent to events. SVG supports many values for this property, but only none, all and visible make sense for HTML. This was added to SVG in bug 10415.

This property is needed to finish the new table deletion UI work, adding column and row deletion.

Wow. This is a blast from the past.

Hmmm... just occurred to me that the svg css property value keywords might not be visible without svg enabled. Note to self: check this.

[Dean Jackson]

Yep. I need to move the "visiblePainted", etc keywords in from SVGCSSValueKeywords.in

I won't submit a new patch file - it should be obvious for review.
