Add $stateEnter and $stateExit events.

Would be nice to have $stateEnter and $stateExit events. I have been needed it while implementing confirmDialog flag in routes which allows me to open the route in a popup.

stateProvider has onEnter and onExit events

I mean onExit and onEnter events broadcasting from scope up to $rootScope similar to $stateChangeStart event.

There is a mechanism that will provide equivalent functionality in an upcoming release.

We're not going to maintain any more $rootScope events. However, you can implement this yourself:

app.run(($transitions, $rootScope) => {  
  $transitions.onEnter({ }, function(transition, state) {
    $rootScope.$broadcast("$stateEntering", state, transition);
  }

  $transitions.onExit({ }, function(transition, state) {
    $rootScope.$broadcast("$stateExiting", state, transition);
  }
});
