That's been our implementation experience. It's neat that properties
on event objects fall cleanly into two categories:

1) properties that inform the author about the actual event dispatch
process (target, relatedTarget)
2) properties that inform the author about the specifics of the event.

The #1 are the ones that need adjustment for encapsulation. The #2 are
the ones that can be either computed on demand or don't need
adjustment.
