John, No, relevance has no effect on action handlers. Relevance does affect submission and validation (modulo the submission/@relevant attribute). There are also some events that are sent to in response to relevance or instance node appearance/disappearance (xforms-enabled, xforms-disabled) so you will see some effect there. (Does anybody think differently here?) Although it doesn't have to be the case, most XForms 1.0 integrations with XHTML use relevance to control the :enable and :disabled CSS properties. If you need to control actions, take a look at the new conditional attributes on actions in XForms 1.1.

Does it matter whether or not the observer for the event handler is a descendant of the irrelevant form element? Take care, John L.
