Re: CGevent and cocoa compatibility

Probably means you'll need to use the event taps API and swallow the 
event - which is relatively simple to achieve as long as you can 
install an event tap that isnt a listener only.  I presume since 
you're already talked about CGEvent structures, that this is indeed 
what you are doing - correct me if I'm wrong.

Installing an event tap that modifies the event chain won't require 
special privs (from memory), so long as you don't install it at the 
window server level.

Does this send you in the right direction?
