Okay, I've done precisely this, on the 15-schema-refactoring branch, to 
go along with the event-based validation and schema adapterisation (and 
also to save me from having to modernise AT's test setup in more than 
one place, when Whit already did it on that branch).

We have:

  - IObjectCreated event is being fired during the generated constructor

--> I don't know how to write a test for this, though, so it's currently 
untested :-(

  - IObjectInitializedEvent and IObjectEditedEvent both inherit from 
IObjectModifiedEvent, and are being fired in processForm() when the 
object is first edited (creation flag is set) and when it's subsequently 
edited.

This retains compatibility with current 1.4 behaviour where only 
IObjectModified event is being fired in processForm(), but also lets you 
register different subscribers if you truly need to differentiate 
between first-save and subsequent-edit.

There are tests for everything except for the created event. Writing 
that test is not hard, but I don't know to properly invoke the generated 
constructor on my dummy content object.

Also - this branch is now probably ready to be merged into 1.5 (which 
Nouri already gave the nod for). It brings benefits of test framework 
improvements (to make it easier to test things that use the Z3 CA), as 
well as the schema-by-interface stuff, the validation events and the 
above events. There are two test failures, which are also there on the 
plain 1.5 branch and relate to WebDAV, otherwise things are tested and 
working. I've also done real-world tests against ContentFlavors and it 
seems to work nicely.
