Missing Support for DOM Level 2: handleEvent (Interface EventListener)

[digitarald]

bean does not handle a neat pattern from the DOM Level 2 Events: Interface EventListener

It doesn't support handleEvent. I could just give a class instance to the event handler, I don't need to handle the scope.

Example:

class App
  constructor: ->  
    @element = $ '#app'
    @element.bind 'dblclick', this

  handleEvent: (event) ->
    switch event.type
      when 'dblclick' then @addEmptyChild event.pageX, event.pageY`

I forked and will see if I can find a valid fix for nativeHandler and customHandler to handle that. Important to note is also the different scope handling, since handleEvent is not called with the event target as scope.

@fat -- this looks like the thing i was showing you a while back...

on('click', {
  handleEvent: function () {

  }
}, false)

yep, i think so
