DOM Events
<sajax-content> events try to behave as close to native DOM as possible. This means that you may cancel <sajax-content>s default behavior without having to worry about order of listeners or hierarchy. There is a single limitation to maintain defaultable and cancelable behavior. do not add an event listener to <sajax-content> events on the window/global object.
