Next question :)

To create a display object in mura I think I need to be able to call
the event programatically (is this correct)?

I notice some rather lively debate here previously about whether or
not this can be done:
http://groups.google.com/group/model-glue/browse_thread/thread/44af85ea96c4088/1afad69e8ad02903?lnk=gst

I think I'm looking for something like FW/1's "doEvent()" method.
Does MG have a hook like this, or is it not possible?  As messy as it
sounds, is remoting maybe a way to do this?
