I'm glad to hear it. The __data__ object's new ability to return to an object 
and not some kind of abstract "listener" class is a real bonus for a lot of 
apps. You can still build more generic listeners and then multiplex data 
sending through sigslot, but this is a rare case in my short experience using 
__data__ for app development.

It might prove useful to others to see other examples of how to make this 
work.

It is indeed possible, and NW has some provisions for this. I'll try to dig up 
an example for you tomorrow.
