HTML5 Gamepad API - no event is dispatched to Lime

[pfoof]

• Haxe version: 4.0.3
• OpenFL version: 8.9.6
• Lime version: 7.7.0 (as well as latest)
• Affected targets: HTML5

Code snippet:

#if js
		Browser.window.addEventListener("gamepadconnected", (e) ->
		{
			var event = cast(e, GamepadEvent);
			var gamepad = event.gamepad;
			_gamepads.set(gamepad.index, gamepad);
			Console.log("Gamepad " + gamepad.id + " connected at " + gamepad.index); // This code executes
		});

		Browser.window.addEventListener("gamepaddisconnected", (e) ->
		{
			var event = cast(e, GamepadEvent);
			var index = event.gamepad.index;
			_gamepads.remove(index);
		});
		#end
                trace("Creating..."); // Prints "Creating..."
                trace(lime.ui.Gamepad.devices); // Produces empty array

Observed behavior: No gamepads are detected in a browser. However, in pure JS it works.

Expected behavior: Gamepads should be detected and the event should be dispatched from JS because the browser registers the gamepad after pressing a button in "ongamepadconnected" window event. Lime apparently does not attach to that event (or is unsubscribed at some point).
