Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to a simple textarea (http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_textarea)
2. Type enough text to get a scroll bar
3. Scroll using the touch screen


Actual results:

No events are fired that show that touch was used. Listened for mouse/pointer/touch events and none were fired when scrolling.


Expected results:

Events should fire when scrolling to indicate that the screen is being touched.

Ok, yeah - this is expected behaviour in Firefox 45. Current Windows nightly has touch events working, if you turn on e10s/APZ. I'm hoping to get it to release in Firefox 51 or 52. Marking this as a dupe of bug 1180706, which turned on touch events in Windows nightly.
