event strings

angular's $broadcast/$emit/$on are used to communicate across modules, but there isn't a great way to list out all the event strings in code so this page is used to document event string constants and their function. This list may not be fully up-to-date, but it's better than nothing.

*** remember: event strings are case-sensitive and must match exactly, so watch out for typos ***
