DougB> My point is simply that users are confused about this current state
DougB> of events, and we should do something to make things more clear.

And I claim that is impossible.  If we add a new variable, users still have
to find that variable in the documentation.  If users are going to look
at the documentation, they will already find (in more places than anything
else is documented) the current solution.  The fact that they are having
difficulties now proves they aren't reading documentation and therefore
won't find the new variable either.
