José, 

I think the point that James was trying to convey is that we don't want people 
using internal events inside triggers, not that we don't want to expose that 
functionality for trigger writers to use. 

This is the first time someone has asked to be able to do to that from a 
trigger, which likely is why triggers currently can't.  It is something we 
can add, though. We don't consider our trigger namespace nearly complete yet. 

In other words, we are certainly willing to add new methods to the trigger 
namespace if people need new functions. I think that any event a user can do 
via keystrokes should also be accessible somehow via a trigger to the end 
developer.
