Pointer Events with Surface Pro Stylus get lost

Reported by sjw...@gmail.com, Apr 24 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.133 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Here is a jsfiddle
https://jsfiddle.net/sweaver/br7vo3je/2/

Use a Surface Pro with the surface stylus.
use Chrome version 58
Use the sylus to Long hold to bring up the context menu
Click off the context menu 
The pointer events w/ ids look like this
pointerover: 1
pointerenter: 1
pointerdown: 1
pointerup: 2
At this point we've lost the reference to pointerId 1

What is the expected behavior?
the pointerId in pointerup should be 1

What went wrong?
the pointerId in pointerup is 2

Did this work before? Yes 54

Does this work in other browsers? N/A

Chrome version: 58.0.3029.81  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 10 (OS build 105864.164)
Flash Version: 

I don't know exactly what version this broke in other than after 55.. the mouse events did not have this problem.

Status: Untriaged (was: Unconfirmed)
Able to reproduce this issue on Mac 10.12.4, Win-10 and Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome reported version #58.0.3029.81 and latest canary #60.0.3079.0.

This is a non-regression issue as it is observed from M30 old builds. 

Hence, marking it as untriaged to get more inputs from dev team.

Note: Same behavior is observed in Firefox also.

Thanks...!!

Can you post a jsfiddle of the issue happening in Firefox? The fiddle that I posted will not work in Firefox, because pointer events are not supported...http://caniuse.com/#feat=pointer

Any fix coming for this? Chrome in general does not work well with a Surface stylus, and some web-apps are unusable with a Surface Pro Stylus in latest chrome. 

Specifically double clicking with a stylus, does not work as a mouse double click. Most of the time it doesn't even register as a double click.

Some testing I did:
Double clicking with a stylus for selecting a word doesn't work.
Tripple clicking with a stylus for selecting paragraph doesn't work.
Web apps that are designed with double clicking to open certain things, does not work with stylus.
