Description

Case 1 is used when 'dispatch flag' is set, but what does "the position where the event occurred" refer to when event is dispatched the second time?

Perhaps just returning pageX/Y would be fine after the initial dispatch?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Read the CSSOM specification sections on offsetX/Y and event dispatch. Determine the intended behavior when the dispatch flag is set and propose a spec fix.
