This sentiment is not uncommon but I still disagree. There are many instances when I want to know which element is dispatching the event. As stated, using currentTarget exclusively means you can only get a reference from the instance to which the listener is attached. Doing this all the time practically negates event cascading.
I think they both have their purposes and should be used accordingly.
