Why is that particularly hard? Calling fireEvent (or whatever it will be called) twice on a given event has to be specified. This "suppress getters" goal seems like a mistake to me, and ES5 itself does not worry about it, even as it both standardizes getters and adds objects-as-keyword-parameter-sets to standard library APIs.
