Thank you all for tips. I'll probably stick to the functools method though.
I recommend adding a paragraph about this to docs as more people will stumble upon this as this was possible with the extension system (one could pass additional vars to extension constructor and use them in callbacks) and no longer (directly) with events. cheers.
