Hi Matt,

I tested this just now, and the event listener works exactly as you
described.  It suits my needs perfectly.  :)

The xml to use in the project.xml is also like you described:

<events xsi:type="event-policy">
	<event-listeners>
		<event-listener>com.foo.MyEventListener</event-listener>
	</event-listeners>
</events>

Thank you so much!  btw, you might want to update the documentation here to
say that XML Descriptors are supported for event handlers:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Configuring_a_Descriptor_(ELUG)#Configuring_a_Descriptor_Event_Listener_as_an_Event_Handler

Thanks!
