            Bug ID: 273946
           Summary: Add auxclick event API to macOS, iOS, iPadOS, &
                    visionOS
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 17
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit API
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: jeff03blue at gmail.com

This event is useful when using a gaming mouse that has multiple buttons. It should be added to macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and visionOS

Lack of the auxclick event, which should be a pointer event as well, means games cannot bind actions to 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc. mouse buttons.

Here is a link to a auxclick demo that works on safari and chrome:

- The background will change for normal clicks, and for aux clicks the text of the "Click me!" will change colors.
- Note: On safari the "Click me!" does not change colors when clicking with a 3rd mouse button.
