I'll shoot from the hip and GUESS that the reason MIGHT be that (hopefully) someone is fixing what I currently think is a MAJOR flaw in the whole design/implementation of events in GWT.
If I'm correct (that there really IS a flaw), it's that there needs to be the concept of 'addEventListener' to every widget object (instead of forcing one to subclass each widget, as seems to be the case currently). The problem as I see it is that stuff like 'addClickListener' is very limiting, because you can't easily add events, like double-click, etc, etc. Sigh.
