The frontcontroller doesn't map events to commands but strings like WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET to commands. So any event with a type set to WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET, which reaches the frontcontroller, triggers the command, which is bound to the string WidgetController.EVENT_ADD_WIDGET.
