Oh. You are right. How pathetic is that! I should fix that ASAP.

I'm not sure if having multiple listeners is useful at this level - all
EventSensor does is pulling the events from the VM, packaging them up
and passing them into the event queue for any downstream consumers. If
there were multiple listeners in a morphic environment, they should
probably be registering with the hand (which has such a listener
mechanism already), not with Sensor. What's the use case for this
refactoring?
