Spec review for Snap Events

[DavMila]

こんにちは TAG-さん!

I'm requesting a TAG review of Snap Events.

CSS scroll snap points are often used as a mechanism to create interactive scroll "selection" components, giving authors control over what areas of its content a scrolling container can settle. This proposal adds 2 JavaScript events, “snapchanging” and “snapchanged”, which fire in response to the scrolling/snapping of containers which snap. snapchanging is a JavaScript event that aims to let the web page know, as early as possible, that a scrolling operation will result in a change in the element the container being scrolled is snapped to. snapchanged is a JavaScript event that fires when a scrolling operation is complete and the scroller has snapped to a different element than it was previously snapped to.
