- We were looking at renaming it NewEventDispatcher anyhow. In general it
- is not 'illegal' to call or overide priv methods. We consider those
- methods implementation only and adding a priv prefix is a way for us to
- mark them as so. It is a way for us to also reduce as much as possible
- the public API. Note also that priv methods are not documented. But it
- might be possible that we decided wrongly that a method was priv (good
- examples are PrivNewEventDispatcher or PrivActivateFrame) and we need to
- know about that.
