Match mobile web, where :active is transient: a press that turns into a scroll or drags off the element clears it (unlike the sticky :hover). iOS splits the shared gesture handler and drops :active on movement past the slop, measured in window space so a content-tracking scroll still counts; Android adds ACTION_MOVE handling using scaledTouchSlop. The single active-pointer token is held until the finger lifts.

:activetransient like mobile web: a press that turns into a scroll or drags past the tap slop clears:active, instead of holding it until the finger lifts.Stacked on #9793 (touch
