While that may seem confusing, including everything would be even more
confusing. Dabo is not wx; in fact, we are agnostic when it comes to the
underlying UI toolkit. wxPython was the first one we wrapped; we always hoped
that there would be enough of an interest in other toolkits for someone to take
on the task of wrapping those. The docs will apply to all, which is why we
don't expose the messy details of any specific toolkit.
We also try to wrap specific features as they are requested. Jacek
first brought up FilterEvent two years ago, and as a result we made it possible
to subclass UIApp so that he could customize it without adding wx-specific
stuff into Dabo. And, FWIW, I did some research and found that when Dabo was
created, FilterEvent() didn't exist in wxPython; it was in wxWidgets, but Robin
felt it would be too much overhead to add at the Python layer. Guess he has
since figured that one out. :)
