When adding a listener why does the third element of the argument,
which is always a handler function, have to be named as a function
every time as in:

google.maps.event.addListener(map, 'click', function() {
    alert("hello")
});

Why can’t you just assume it’s a function and use the more compact?

google.maps.event.addListener(map, 'click', alert("hello"));

After all we know that the second element is an event but we don't
have to write event: 'click', just 'click'

Just curious, Steve.
