This API seems rather contrived. An event class is not in charge of
dispatching another event. If it is, I would like to see the
underlying model for these events that led to that conclusion.

(As far as I can tell one major problem here still is that we have not
defined the underlying model for mouse events et al. What task they
are dispatched from, which come from distinct tasks, etc.)
