Hmmm, so its one of those "damned if you do, damned if you don't".
There is one possible workaround. The Events component could skip the
METHOD context when looking up the observers. The other solution is to
use the example I gave and lookup the component outside of the METHOD
scope.

Regardless of what we decide, it would probably be a good idea to let
users know (in the docs) that the unproxied instance is sitting in the
METHOD context.
