Description
Currently, .triggerHandler() calls event.preventDefault() to avoid the default action running. However, this prevents the caller from using the default action indication that might be returned by one of the handlers. Since we have an onlyHandlers variable we can use that instead and not mess with the event.

Fix #10794. .triggerHandler() should not .preventDefault().
This also provides a resolution for #10699.

(In #10699) @maranomynet, I closed this ticket because I thought we'd addressed the common use cases. If I am to interpret your snarky posts and tweets, we haven't addressed a use case that is important to you.
Can you describe your situation a bit more? Is there a reason why the handlers themselves cannot stop propagation?
