Description

this is unintuitive for mobile users

a solution is to either ditch the canvas approach and use html elements or find a way to forward the event past the canvas

Research direction

Reproduce the issue on a mobile device and trace how the canvas receives touch events; the payload does not name a file, test, or entry point. Compare forwarding events past the canvas with replacing the controls by HTML elements. Done means the mobile buttons respond reliably without breaking the existing controller behavior.
