Generics for Event Listener Pattern

To workaround the somethingListener -> somethingEvent mapping.

I'm not the first person to care about Event Notification. (but it's a problem that I'd rather not care about, especially after I met Qt's Signals and Slots... Java beaten by C++? Come on!)

Maybe we can use Java 5 generics to save some code...

// Common interface for all listeners. 
public interface Listener<E> {
  public void notify(E event);
}

public class PedalEvent {
  // any custom properties wherever necessary
}

public class PedalListener implements Listener<PedalEvent> {
  public void notify(PedalEvent event) {
     // ... implementation ... 
  } 
} 

public class Car {
  public void addPedalListener(Listener<PedalEvent> pedalListener); 
  public void removePedalListener(Listener<PedalEvent> pedalListener); 
} 

What do you think?
