What is the point of the Event::generic::Source class? It seems like there is only one really important method in the class -- "event" to create a new event. So what I'm thinking is why not just add this method to the generic watcher class? Wouldn't that simplify things? The usage above just seems big and clunky, over-engineered perhaps. For example, how about only: $w = Event->generic(); $w->create_event([qw(a b c)]); warn $event->data->[1]; # b ?
