Do you mean 12-15 different types of events?

Are users supposed to change the handling of events?

:-)  Maybe we can counsel you to some clarifications of what you are
trying to do.  I found that lacking clarity is one source for badly
structured code.  And talking to others - especially from the same
field - helps in finding clarity in one's own mind.  I can only speak
for me of course but I have observed the phenomenon with a few
colleagues as well so I reckon it must be generally helpful to
communicate about ideas and code.

Kind regards
