We need Event Handlers for when users interact with specific parts of the grid.
Specific Parts of Grid
When the user clicks on a cell. We need something like a cell-click event to fire. Along with row-click and grid-click because of
Event Bubbling
It makes logical sense that when someone clicks a cell, they are also clicking on the row where the cell is
Different Interactions
Like the example above, we need events to fire for click, hover, touch etc.
The event Object
e the custom event object should contain all the default event object properties. Eg in case of click which mouse button was used etc.
Also, when a click -like event fires, its very important to get a reference to the original data object of the grid. This can be in the form of a path or indices. Because we should be able to use nested objects #6 this complicated things a bit more. Eg: If I want to change the value of the cell when it was clicked, I need the path of where to change the object is <super-grid>'s data property.
Possible implementation
Please look at the documentation on custom events in Polymer which was created by yours truly :sunglasses:
Other Interactions
These are interactions that will be fired when plugins (like #3) do their custom thing. Eg: If there is a selection plugin implemented, it should fire the grid-selected event along with the Index of the row selected in e the event object.
Similar for sub-rows, editors, custom renderers etc.
