No - remember, my concern at first was preformance, performance,
performance... :)

Take a look - they are checked in now. Sorry bout the delay.

I am trying to keep all type checking and manipulation nonsensense
contained in the EventCartridge, to happen at addHandler() time, not at
merge() time.

So I do have casts, but they are cheap, right?  And I can even get
around those.

The EventCartridge has a method for each of the event handler types, to
the nodes don't  have to mess around sorting and checking.

No.  :)  

To refer to a previous post of mine :

"We are in a speed race with our WebMacro bretheren, and we are *not*
going to lose!  And to be a credible alternative to JSP in high volume
environments, speed speed speed."

Cool.  Be gentle :)  This all isn't fully formed yet.
