This is by design. I guess the idea is that, if the delegate method is related to some event, it, at least, has to have an access to all bound event parameters.

It does not execute the bound event iternally. It does not make sense to do so. If you take a close look at nFlags parameter of BINDEVENT() function, you will see that it defines if the delegate code runs before or after the event code. If the event code would be executed internally from delegate method, then it would mean that the event code might be fired twice, which is not the case.

If a delegate method is bound to several different events, you always can get the reference to the object and the event that caused the delegate method to fire, with AEVENTS(aArrayOfEvents, 0) function. Then you will know how to treat the parameters received - according to the set of parameters that is related to the coreesponding bound event.
