Looking into this, it turns out that the NewDisplayEvent is not 
implemented, and is never generated.  It either was never implemented, 
or was lost in refactoring.  I asked the architect (Mark) for directions.

Looked around for alternatives, but nothing pops up.  Certainly looks 
like we need to fix this!

Best,
