Expose browser-generated events to Athena event handlers

[nevow-migration]

There is currently no way to access the event object from an Athena event handler. Quirksmode has a lot of information [1] that can be useful for implementing this in the "inline event handler" model that Athena currently employs.

It would be worth wrapping the event objects to expose a useful subset of functionality in a cross-browser way.
