I can't help myself from thinking that ":delegate" would be more appropriate
syntax for Event Delegation.
Every time I read "relay" i have to ask myself "Huh?"
$('container').addEvent('mouseover:delegate(a.tipanchor)',function(event,
el) {
/* … */
});
I like how that works.
a pseudo is a lot nicer than a new method.
We need this to get into the core (or even more), as it provides big async
advantages.

d, it
bypasses a queue, and fired that event right away:

It would make sense to mimic that same functionality with the core 'Events'

fore you can procede with
injection.
Here's a quick fiddle demonstrating how such a method works (note this is

It looks like you're loading the mootools-core - Twice. and mootools-

There's no telling what's in the mootools.js, but I can only assume
it's some version or another of mootools. Perhaps it's v1.1x, which
would account for some obvious conflicts; But that's not to say ANY

Side Note:
When you use the flash uploader method (FancyUpload) you get the added
benefit of having a real-time progress indicator. An iFrame doesn't
give you that benefit.
