I did think of that. But that would be a separate patch. Where I would save
the string that is passed in, and whenever a new module is loaded, it would
only add the events if the events' system matches in the string. This would
also allow adding event systems that do not yet exist.

Thanks, I'll make it into a more formal patch set.
