I wouldn't say, "usually", it really depends on your overall architecture. But for some cases, event bubbling is very nice to handle events in a central controller class from events dispatching several levels deep in the display list. So yes, in some of my applications, I have event bubbling turned on in several places, and a class near the bottom (or top, depending on how you look at it) of the display list has all the event handlers.
