No, it cannot, because the events are lost before they reach the
Emacs event queue.  Unless, that is, you mean by "handler" something
that is outside Emacs, in which case I see no way for Emacs to control
how such a "handler" behaves.

"Not feasible".  You are, in effect, saying that I have no real idea
what I'm talking about.  And that's exactly the issue at hand.

Sorry, I can no longer afford discussions in which replies are posted
after two, sometimes 3 or 4 days, and in which each of my arguments,
no matter how minor, always gets contradicted with counter-arguments,
with context stripped so thoroughly that I need to go back 2, 3,
sometimes even 4 messages back to even begin to understand how we
arrived to that.  You never even _try_ to compromise, let alone see
the issue from my POV.  It's as if anything I say that doesn't match
your opinion is in advance deemed invalid.  There's no hope of any
agreement.  That isn't a kind of argument I can afford spending my
time on, sorry.  So I will have to stop trying to do my job of being a
co-maintainer in these cases.
