     This class is used by the events generated by wxAuiNotebook.
 
+    Please note that most events generated by wxAuiNotebook are handled by the
+    notebook object itself, i.e. they do _not_ propagate upwards to the
+    notebook parent window, in spite of being command events. In order to
+    handle these events you should use wxEvtHandler::Bind() to connect to the
+    events on the notebook object itself and don't forget to use
+    wxEvent::Skip() to ensure that the notebook still processes them too.
