[Bug 12846] New: The beforeprint and afterprint shouldn't fire if the user at any time cancels the print request. These events would imply that the user actually printed. Perhaps there should be an onprint event that fired when it is actually sent to the "printer".

           Summary: The beforeprint and afterprint shouldn't fire if the
                    user at any time cancels the print request.  These
                    events would imply that the user actually printed.
                    Perhaps there should be an onprint event that fired
                    when it is actually sent to the "printer".

Comment:
The beforeprint and afterprint shouldn't fire if the user at any time cancels
the print request.  These events would imply that the user actually printed. 
Perhaps there should be an onprint event that fired when it is actually sent
to the "printer".
