Looks good to me.

Would you prefer me to take this into the block branch (actually, I have
already done this) or are you going to commit directly? This might
actually be something that should be in 0.13.

Have you tested some more OSes to ensure that they don't start to expect
events to actually work now the command "works"? I didn't see any
problems in a quick test with Linux, but you never know.
