Evil by name, evil by nature. I've never seen that? Perhaps it's
because I don't double-click things to write event handlers. I select
them (Tab, Tab,... Tab), switch to the Object Inspector (F11), go to
the event *I* want (Ctrl-Tab, Down, Down,... Down) and press Ctrl-Enter.

Actions are great. They require a mindswitch, but once you've made that,
they become instantly indispensible.
