Notes

Internet Explorer implements Pointer Events specification which supports more input devices than Touch Events one.

There is a library on GitHub that is working toward bringing W3C touch events to IE 10 and 11: https://github.com/CamHenlin/TouchPolyfill

Removed support in Firefox refers to desktop Firefox only.
