Hopefully there's a command-line switch to disable these non-
functioning touchevents (like Remy, I too have an app that uses
touchevent detection to determine whether to touch or mouse events,
depending on whether it's mobile or desktop).

Looking on the official list of Chrome switches (http://
src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/src/chrome/common/chrome_switches.cc), I
can't see anything to disable touch events.  So hopefully these events
get sorted out in the next dev release.
