When listening to the ‘wheel’ or ‘mousewheel’ event on the document, if the event’s original target element is removed from the DOM the wheel event is no longer dispatched. 1. Add a listener for ‘wheel’ on the document that removes the target of the event from the DOM. Have this happen after the element moves a specific amount or a certain number of events is received. 2. Scroll on the page (over the relevant element) 3. Keep scrolling You will observe that the DOM event is no longer dispatched.

(removed and reinserted before we get here) Is that OK? It does seem like it would be a problem if we removed a node from one scrolling container, and inserted it into a new location. In that case, even with this code, we would start our event handling with this "migrated" node. Maybe it would be better to just break the caching state in Element::removedFrom.
