Strangely the event object in document.onmouseover identifies itself as a
KeyEvent object when it should be a MouseEvent object.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT>
document.onmouseover = function (evt) {
document.body.appendChild(document.createElement('BR'));
document.body.appendChild(document.createTextNode(evt + ': ' + evt.type));
return true;
}
</SCRIPT>

I briefly checked what could be causing this, but didn't find anything yet.
However, I did find at least two places where we set the wrong eventStructType
for events (these probably do not affect this bug):
nsEventStateManager.cpp line 588 (should be NS_MOUSE_EVENT)
nsHTMLButtonElement.cpp line 398 (should be NS_MOUSE_EVENT)
These kinds of errors would probably go away if we made the events classes
instead of structs with proper constructors and accessors.
This is at least related to, if not a dupe of, bug 35377 where a mousedown event
reports its type as KeyEvent.
I believe this bug is found in nsJSKeyEvent.cpp (generated file). Both
MouseEvent and KeyEvent use the same JSClass KeyEventClass, which defines the
class name to be "KeyEvent".
I am also certain this is a duplicate of bug 35377, marking as such
