Have we agreed to deprecate those? I don't think they should be deprecated until we have a replacement for $._data( elem, "events" ). It's still useful, even though it's private.

We haven't agreed on anything, or even discussed it. This is me declaring war on them.

Also, $._data( elem, "events" ) is not a thing we owe anyone a replacement for...

How would you suggest viewing the events currently bound on an element, which is absolutely necessary and useful?

At one point, it was suggested to have a $.events interface for it, instead of using $._data.

I disagree, but I'd like to politely suggest tabling this discussion because it's not worth having a long drawn out argument on github.
