Yes, this was definitely a problem, but not THE problem.

Yes, this works, but I don't want to do that. My application won't know
who dispathes the event, just wants to know that it was dispatched.
I created this test just to get a bit confortable with events, and to
try to catch what is the problem in my original project which uses
Cairngorm.
In Cairngorm, in the FrontController's addCommand method, the listener
is registered to Application.application. But it is not working in my
project, and obviusly the problem is not in Cairngorm.
Thanks
