/**
* About event dispatching:
* When either nsEventDispatcher::Dispatch or
* nsEventDispatcher::DispatchDOMEvent is called an event target chain is
* created. nsEventDispatcher creates the chain by calling PreHandleEvent
* on each event target and the creation continues until either the mCanHandle
* member of the nsEventChainPreVisitor 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.
