data property is not used. Only certain events
can be requested. When the event is triggered in the other application, that
event is re-dispatched through the bridge where the requesting
SystemManager picks up the event and redispatches it from itself.
In general, this request is generated because some other code called
the addEventListener() method for one of the approved events on its SystemManager.
This request is also dispatched by SystemManager to allow the marshal implementation
to handle adding or removing listeners differently. When dispatched by the
SystemManager, the listener property is non-null;
