ErrorEvent error capture

🕗 Version & Regression Information

This is the behavior in every version I tried, and I reviewed the FAQ for entries about events

💻 Code

const scriptElement = document.createElement('script');
scriptElement.addEventListener('error', event => {
  console.log(`1. script element error event constructor: ${event.constructor.name}`);
});
scriptElement.src = 'https://example.com/nonExistentScript.js';

const linkElement = document.createElement('link');
linkElement.addEventListener('error', event => {
  console.log(`2. link element error event constructor: ${event.constructor.name}`);
});
linkElement.rel = 'stylesheet';
linkElement.href = 'https://example.com/nonExistentStylesheet.css';

window.addEventListener('error', event => {
  console.log(`3. window error event constructor: ${event.constructor.name}`);
});

window.addEventListener('error', event => {
  console.log(`4. window error (with capture) event constructor: ${event.constructor.name}`);
}, {
  capture: true
});

document.head.appendChild(scriptElement);

document.head.appendChild(linkElement);

throw new Error('Uncaught Error');

🙁 Actual behavior

For the above code, the TypeScript compiler types each event callback parameter as ErrorEvent, even though that's not always the type at runtime

Note that the linked playground doesn't show the log messages for the uncaught Error case; here's the full log output:

3. window error event constructor: ErrorEvent
4. window error (with capture) event constructor: ErrorEvent
4. window error (with capture) event constructor: Event
2. link element error event constructor: Event
4. window error (with capture) event constructor: Event
1. script element error event constructor: Event

🙂 Expected behavior

I don't know enough about the DOM "error" event to know what a complete solution would be, but ideally, in the code above, I guess the type for event would be:

1. Event
2. Event
3. ErrorEvent (assuming window non-capture event dispatches of type "error" are always ErrorEvent, which I don't know)
4. ErrorEvent | Event

リンクされている TypeScript Playground と、例で関係する DOM の "error" イベントリスナーの型定義から始めます。推論されたコールバックパラメーターの型を、script、link、window イベントについて実行時にログ出力されたコンストラクターと比較し、その結果の型がこれらのケースを正確に表していることを確認してください。
