Using pointer-events rather then mouse, touch or click events more often, I run into a situation where I would like to tell the browser, "hey, I am using pointer-events on this HTMLElement, forget about mouse, click or touch events (in particular any device defaults)".

In particular stopPropagation() or preventDefault() called from a pointer-event handler have no influence on the other types of events that may be generated from the same user action.

Is there anything similar to, say, stopPropagation() to tell the browser not to derive further events from a user interaction that was handled already in my pointer-down event?

There are a few specific questions in this direction like this one, but I couldn't find a definitive answer like "there is no relation" (what I am afraid will be the answer finally :-/ ).
