		// description:
		//		Trigger some event. It can be either a Dom Event, Custom Event,
		//		or direct function call. NOTE: This function does not trigger
		//		default behavior, only triggers bound event listeneres. eg:
		//		one cannot trigger("anchorNode", "onclick") and expect the browser
		//		to follow the href="" attribute naturally.
		//
		// obj: String|DomNode|Object|Function
		//		An ID, or DomNode reference, from which to trigger the event.
		//		If an Object, fire the `event` in the scope of this object,
		//		similar to calling dojo.hitch(obj, event)(). The return value
		//		in this case is returned from `dojo.trigger`
		//
		// event: String|Function
		//		The name of the event to trigger. Can be any DOM level 2 event
		//		and can be in either form: "onclick" or "click" for instance.
		//		In the object-firing case, this method can be a function or
		//		a string version of a member function, just like `dojo.hitch`.
		//
		// extraArgs: Object?
		//		An object to mix into the `event` object passed to any bound
		//		listeners. Be careful not to override important members, like
		//		`type`, or `preventDefault`. It will likely error.
		//
		//		Additionally, extraArgs is moot in the object-triggering case,
		//		as all arguments beyond the `event` are curried onto the triggered
		//		function.
		//
		// example:
		//	|	dojo.connect(node, "onclick", function(e){ /* stuff */ });
		//	|	// later:
		//	|	dojo.trigger(node, "onclick");
		//
		// example:
		//	|	// or from within dojo.query: (requires dojo.NodeList)
		//	|	dojo.query("a").onclick(function(){}).trigger("onclick");
		//
		// example:
		//	|	// fire obj.method() in scope of obj
		//	|	dojo.trigger(obj, "method");
		//
		// example:
		//	|	// fire an anonymous function:
		//	|	dojo.trigger(d.global, function(){ /* stuff */ });
		//
		// example:
		//	|	// fire and anonymous function in the scope of obj
		//	|	dojo.trigger(obj, function(){ this == obj; });
		//
		// example:
		//	|	// with a connected function like:
		//	|	dojo.connect(dojo.doc, "onclick", function(e){
		//	|		if(e && e.manuallydone){
		//	|			console.log("this was a triggered onclick, not natural");
		//	|		}
		//	|	});
		//	|	// fire onclick, passing in a custom bit of info
		//	|	dojo.trigger("someId", "onclick", { manuallydone:true });
		//
		// returns: Anything
		//		Will not return anything in the Dom event case, but will return whatever
		//		return value is received from the triggered event.
