<p>IMO, the runtime type of the event payload should be ignored when firing events through Event.fire(), and so in your case, the exception shouldn't be thrown at all. Neither should the exception be thrown earlier, since you injected <tt>Event&lt;List&lt;String&gt;&gt;</tt>, which does not contain any type variables and is therefore a valid event type.</p>
