@namespace Event objects


Whenever a class inheriting from `Evented` fires an event, a listener function
will be called with an event argument, which is a plain object containing
information about the event. For example:

```js
map.on('click', function(ev) {
    alert(ev.latlng); // ev is an event object (MouseEvent in this case)
});
```

The information available depends on the event type:


@miniclass Event (Event objects)
@section
The base event object. All other event objects contain these properties too.
@property type: String
The event type (e.g. `'click'`).
@property target: Object
The object that fired the event. For propagated events, the last object in
the propagation chain that fired the event.
@property sourceTarget: Object
The object that originally fired the event. For non-propagated events, this will
be the same as the `target`.
@property propagatedFrom: Object
For propagated events, the last object that propagated the event to its
event parent.
@property layer: Object
**Deprecated.** The same as `propagatedFrom`.
