          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified

Screenshot gifs of example in chrome and safari.

Hover disabled on elements

Reproduce:
1. Mouse down ANYWHERE in a document
2. Mouse move over any element that has :hover styling
3. Hover state does not show

Example:

Why is this an issue?
- No other browser behaves this way (Edge, FF, or Chrome).
- Leveraging :hover is FAST and I'd love to use it over adding event listeners that aren't as reliable.
- Not super fun when you have to add event listeners only for Safari.
- Would leverage with custom drag n' drop behaviors (with custom designed thumbnails)

Thanks!
