Triggering Events vs Subscribing

[Eonasdan]

I currently do two types of event raising. One is on the element directly and the other is through the subscription function. This was to support a more native event system but also allowing for more of a RxJS approach.

The subscribe method feels cleaner to me. Should the element events go away?

I like the element event it allows loose coupling. This meshes well when there is also legacy code in place. For example if there is a view controller already present for client side form validation and tempus-dominus is being used as a drop-in date picker replacement. The change event name needs to be changed and thats all. Where as the subscription approach requires more retooling.
