> The semantics must report an error/warning/notification when an invalid event is triggered, instead of silently discarding it. An invalid event is one that is not specified for the current state.
> Here's an excerpt of a converstaion, where the suggested workaround was not applicable. This requirement is crucial for me.

> No, because the semantics treat it as simply an inconsequential

> error.
> One of the ways you could track this is to register a SCXMLListener on
