Uses Passive Event Listeners to Improve Scrolling Performance

[rtarnaud]

According to the Google devs, it is a good practice to flag every wheel, mousewheel, touchstart, and touchmove event listener with the passive attribute, see here.
There is a simple feature detection test to implement in order to see if the browser supports this flag here and it seems that the only place in Semantic UI where this flag needs to be passed is in one of the helper functions for managing events.

Is it possible to implement this?

I've been thinking about this previously. It's most likely contingent on jQuery supporting passive listeners jquery/jquery#2871

Yes, sorry you are right. The helper I was mentioning is indeed part of Jquery.
