This would only be appropriate for events that don't have an inherent position, like key events. For events from a tablet, which do have a position, the first responder is not the appropriate target. This is just like for a mouse. Certainly, you don't expect a click outside of the main or key window, or on a button when a text field is the first responder, to only go to the first responder, do you?
