htmx 1.3.0 Release

I'm happy to announce the 1.3.0 release of htmx.

New Features & Major Changes

• Support a target modifier on hx-trigger to filter based on the element targeted by an event. This allows lazy binding to that target selector.
• Events are no longer consumed by the first element that might handle them, unless the consume keyword is added to the hx-trigger specification
• Added the htmx:beforeSend event, fired just before an ajax request begins
• htmx.ajax() now returns a promise

Improvements & Bug fixes

• SSE swaps are properly settled
• Fixed bug that was improperly cancelling all clicks on anchors

Enjoy!
