Yes, the really crappy propagation of registration refnums is perhaps the major obstacle to the 1:1 command:event organisation. That and the Event Structure mixing up the order of events whenever I add another event to the API......

I usually have one user event per "actor" which is used to broadcast when its state changes. Recently I have been playing around with not using the event data terminal and instead having a global data repository implemented using a DRV to a variant (with the data stored as named attributes), the actors user event data is a timestamp that I set when I generate the event. If I had a cent for every time I have created and deleted the register event terminal which never propagates properly...
