In order to gather more data before landing
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1321516, it needs
to be possible to enable the WebDriver conforming Element Click
implementation in Marionette from geckodriver.  Without it, external
consumers running Selenium tests will not be able to run their
existing body of tests against a WebDriver conforming Element Click
implementation.

This bug is to introduce a new extension capability to geckodriver.
This will then pass {specificationLevel: 1} on to Marionette,
which will make it use interaction.webdriverClickElement
instead of interaction.seleniumClickElement in
testing/marionette/interaction.js.

It would be good to have this in the upcoming 0.19 release of geckodriver.

Andreas, I attached two patches which simply make it working. I'm struggling a bit with a better name for the custom capability, so I left it as `moz:specificationLevel` for now. Do you have any nice-sounding proposal of what we could use here? Finally I would prefer a boolean value here.

I think that we can safely get rid of the "specificationLevel" capability given that it has not been used beside our Marionette unit tests. Can you think about something else?

Oh, and do we want to expose this capability in our readme? I doubt so given that it will not exist that long.

We can safely get rid of specificationLevel.  Like you, I don’t
think moz:specificationLevel is great either.  It originates from
a time when it was believed returning the specification level
supported by the implementation was a good idea.  We have since
decided to return the actual capabilities that the driver supports,
e.g. "rotatable".

Maybe moz:webdriverClick would work?  This is a capability that we
want to eventually get rid of anyway, so we should be too fuzzy
about picking any name.
