This paragraph went way over my head.

But, it sort of reminded me to ask about something else:

Are anonymous methods (going to be) compatible with event methods?

i.e. are they 'procedure of object' (or 'function of object') kind of 
constructs.

The reason I am asking this is: There have been times when I could kill 
to be able to assign (temporarily) a local procedure/function an 
object's event (say, OnClick) so that I could capture the event's 
outcome right in there wthin the body of the active routine.

Would this be possible?
