Dec 1, 2025December 2025: Delivered a UI-focused feature in bitmovin-player-ui that simplifies event handling by removing stopPropagation for focus and click events in the Button component, allowing events to bubble and aligning with native DOM behavior. This reduces integration complexity for downstream applications and improves developer expectations consistency. A changelog entry was added to document the behavioral change. Commits and traceability details are included for auditability.
