Great! I only had a brief look, but it seems to fit perfectly with the
code layout :-). What might be required is a check for SDL_Mixer in
the configure script. I hadn't installed that, so I couldn't compile
at first.

I guess the state of audio events would not need to be saved, just as
you say. So you could leave these methods empty.

Other event types will have to be persisted when saving a game. They
will be stored when calling put_state of the event factory and will be
loaded and registered through the factory again when loading the game
at a later point.

For audio events, no persistance should be required.
