The original question was "How do you detect if the UA supports each of
these sensor?"
I don't think we're asking whether you'd get events, but whether you can
detect that the UA actually supports the event. I would think the UA should
expose support (via onxxx attributes) if the UA and device act
That is different -- Hixie can chime in.
I think the idea is that if you have and dom event handler, you should also
have an on event handler attribute. Its meaning is less defined. I do not
think it means that if ondevicemotion exists, that means you will always see
device motion events.
There is a discussion on the DAP WG, we like the simplicity of the proposal
however there is an important feature that is missing which is ability to set
the report interval and threshold.

I thought this was the preferred way to check. I seem to recall a

This came up at the WebApps F2F and there was general agreement that
if we added new events adding new event handler attributes would make
sense. Feature detection of some kind is useful as forcing people to
do UA sni
