By "changed/update" you mean "something changed, go reload the whole
object"?  I prefer the "register for this specific event from this
model", but in MVP the Aspects were so fine grained I think even
"changed/update" would work because you would be talking about changes
to classes like string, number, etc.  In other words, a presenter for
a given class would have an aspect for each member as I recall.
