Hi Joel,
I didn't thought about the first point, thanks for that. About the
second one, I thought about it but found that I could get intro trouble
with certain versions of jQuery if I tried to unbind events since jQuery
seems to try to call "detachEvent" or "removeEventListener" (depending
on the browser) assuming always the object is a DOM element and that's
the reason I wanted to use $(document) or $('body')
I'm not really interested in bouncing events off the dom as you say, so
I'll probably go for something like this jquery plugin someone suggested
in the list: https://gist.github.com/661855
Thanks.

1. Body will bubble up through HTML to document. document doesn't have any
place to bubble.
2. You don't have to use the dom when doing jQuery custom events.
$(document).trigger works the same way as $(myNS).trigger where myNS is your
global namespaced object
This probably makes more sense to your app than bouncing events off the dom
anyway.

Because I'd also like to use namespaced events and I think jQuery has this
cleverly implemented

I like this really tiny but clever plugin. I'll definitely keep it
in mine, but still I have the question whether using $(document) or
$('body') makes any different. Any idea ?
There is one small difference. The $(document) selector is a bit
faster. I dont think that there would be other difference.
right and then the question is: why would you even be running a dom
selector/instantiating a jq obj for something that has
little-to-nothing to do with the DOM. The point of pubsub is that it's
_not_ coupled to anything.
