Yay! I've been using this patch on my private build for some time now, and
find it quite useful.


What are you thinking regarding your comment on configuring an event
cartridge?  Do you mean that there should be a "relativeload" event
cartridge that can be used at the developer's discretion?

Well, right now, if you want to use the event handling stuff, you have to add an event cartridge in the code, which doesn't work if it isn't your code. It might be nice to configure an event cartridge via properties rather than code, so that you could add a input handler that does what claude wants, for example...

I love this idea, and there is a related suggestion :


http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18072

which I am less of a fan of the solution, because I think you'd run
into serious confusion especially w/ things invoked from VMs.

However, I think we can combine the two ideas because the former covers
the latter. The event handler method is natural now. In order to make
it automatic, as Claude wants, we can look at being able to configure
an event cartridge rather than only be able to do in code. That way
you can modify behavior through configuration.


Does that sound right?

I'll start with Will's patch.
