Actually, I think the whole API for the signal() function needs to be
sanity-checked. It works rather poorly if you want to send non-DOM
signals to DOM objects for instance (if you've invented your own
signals for example).
Just waiting for that day when I have loads of spare time on my hands
again... :-)
Meanwhile, feel free to drop me a documentation patch. We are very
liberal with accepting those.
Cheers,
