JAWS itself calls the event functions. And yeah, it does get a handle
as a parameter, should have looked at the FSDN on that one.
As for which window it will trigger on all windows in a program that
experience the right condition. If a program has more than one window
class that triggers the event and they need different handling then
the function will need to contain logic to determine which window type
is active and which branch to actually use.
