Standardize MouseEvent#fromElement and toElement.

Project Member Reported by lunalu@chromium.org, Feb 15 2017 
They are currently commented as non-standard APIs in Blink, and measured by MouseEvent[From|To]Element.

Currently I don't see those APIs in WebKit or Gecko.
Should we standardize or remove these APIs for interoperability concern?

There is a spec bug to do just that. https://github.com/w3c/uievents/issues/84

I think the current plan is to spec them but don't know the details.

Summary: Standardize MouseEvent#fromElement and toElement. (was: Standardize or remove MouseEvent#fromElement and toElement.)
Chrome usage stats looked unbelievably high to me:
  https://www.chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/506
  https://www.chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/507
so I did a quick look in httparchive.  Looks like there are ~1M pages containing '.fromElement' out of ~14M (in httparchive:har.2018_02_01_chrome_requests_bodies).

I think removal is not an option for us.

This bug had an unsupported status. Updating to Untriaged so someone will reevaluate.
