[Chris Dumez]

Allow sequence<Touch> input in TouchEvent constructor in addition to TouchList object. It is convenient for developers to pass arrays of Touch objects.

Can't we do this by just overloading constructors instead?

Not really, the constructor looks like so:

dictionary TouchEventInit : EventModifierInit {
    TouchList touches;
    TouchList targetTouches;
    TouchList changedTouches;
};

[Constructor(DOMString type, optional TouchEventInit eventInitDict)]

I think the clean way (once we support union) and once we use proper constructors for event interfaces (instead of [ConstructorTemplate=Event] / [InitializedByEventConstructor]) would be:

dictionary TouchEventInit : EventModifierInit {
    (TouchList or sequence<Touch>) touches = [];
    (TouchList or sequence<Touch>) targetTouches = [];
    (TouchList or sequence<Touch>) changedTouches = [];
};

But we do not support unions just yet.
