 Replying to [comment:11 tschaub]:
 > Though events.destroy unregisters all event listeners (lest you thought
 there was room for leakage here) - and keeping those references to
 functions isn't like keeping references to dom elements.

 right... but i would like us to explicitly unregister them as well. the
 destroy on the events thing should be a last resort thing. i think it's
 important to be explicit about registering and unregistering, newing and
 deleting (nulling) or whatever... it makes it easier to make sure that we
 are taking care of things without relying on "magic" (as some say)
 functions.

 plus... didn't you add some newfangled two letter function to do this
 automatically(unregister all those listeners)??
