Yes, the dispatcher and the listener are both in the same call stack always, but I think what we were discussing is whether the caller (the original caller, the one that calls the method that will eventually dispatch the event) is in the same callstack as the listener / event handler. That's not always the case, as it depends on whether the event is dispatched synchronously or not.
