Thanks. This really drives home how insane the browser architecture is. React would like to pause rendering to react to new events as they come in. However, there is no way for React to be told when there is a new event, so it has to poll for it. Unfortunately there's no way to directly poll for a new event, so it has to fake an event poll via inversion of control built on top of requestAnimationFrame.
