I'm coming back to thinking about this after a long delay (sorry!).
Does anyone know if the event attributes shown below are sufficiently
cross-browser to make sense to build into the Ur/Web basis?

Looking at
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/DOM_event_reference
I think it worth to define mouseEvent and keyboardEvent types:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/MouseEvent
con mouseEvent
= { ScreenX : int, ScreenY : int, ClientX : int, ClientY : int
, CtrlKey : bool, ShiftKey : bool, AltKey : bool, MetaKey : bool
, Left : bool, Right : bool, Middle : bool }
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/KeyboardEvent
con keyboardEvent
= { KeyCode : int, Char : string
, CtrlKey : bool, ShiftKey : bool, AltKey : bool, MetaKey : bool }
and change onclick/ondblclick/onmouse* to
mouseEvent -> transaction {}
and onkeydown/onkeypress/onkeyup to
keyboardEvent -> transaction {}
Interesting possibility is to allow both (transaction {}) and (event
-> transaction {}) as event handlers, so handlers that don't need
extra argument (like most of onclick handlers) could be written
without superfluous "fn _ => ". I think it's possible through type
class mechanism.
Hmm. Somehow this strikes me as a bit too overload-y for my tastes. :)
