Input Processing based on Input Context

Techniques for input processing based on input context are described. In at least some embodiments, a region of a display area includes multiple graphic elements that can be generated and/or managed by different components. Examples of such components include applications, plug-in modules, graphics frameworks, and so forth. Techniques discussed herein enable input to graphical elements to be handled in various ways, such as by routing the input to an appropriate component. Further, custom input contexts can be specified such that particular types and/or combinations of inputs can be interpreted.
