In fact, for remote listeners, org.infinispan.client.hotrod.event.ClientEvent has a type that allows the client to detect the type of the event received, independent of what the value(s) contain.

Yeah I think the idea I was going down was to do a hybrid approach
where we have the single method (containing the enum type) and then
provide an abstract class that does the method separation if an
implementer wants some boilerplate code implemented already.
