Re: InstanceEvent on all types

Hi Wim,
this is currently not possible. I guess the simplest solution (in terms 
of maintainability) would be to implement such a support directly in the 
MDR. Could you propose what should the peferable API for that look like. 
I was also thinking about adding support for propagating events accross 
the containment hierarchy (from an instance to its containers 
transitively), which would be a similar kind of thing. But then we are 
getting into to much propagation of events which is usually not even 
necessary. So I guess one would like to control (when registering a 
listener) whether they want to listen also to components/instances of 
subtypes or not.
Other (procedurally simplier) option for you to consider is to write 
your own listeners registration utility that registers the listener on 
the class proxies corresponding to a given metaclass and all of its 
subtypes.
If you want a quick solution, maybe you should go for the second option, 
in the meantime we can work together on the new API and implement the 
first option and then you can switch to that.
