+/**
+ * About event dispatching:
+ * When either EventDispatcher::Dispatch or
+ * EventDispatcher::DispatchDOMEvent is called an event target chain is
+ * created. EventDispatcher creates the chain by calling PreHandleEvent
+ * on each event target and the creation continues until either the mCanHandle
+ * member of the EventChainPreVisitor object is false or the mParentTarget
+ * does not point to a new target. The event target chain is created in the
+ * heap.
+ *
+ * If the event needs retargeting, mEventTargetAtParent must be set in
+ * PreHandleEvent.
+ *
+ * The capture, target and bubble phases of the event dispatch are handled
+ * by iterating through the event target chain. Iteration happens twice,
+ * first for the default event group and then for the system event group.
+ * While dispatching the event for the system event group PostHandleEvent
+ * is called right after calling event listener for the current event target.
