@carlw what about binding then? Isn't it better to update property in controller and so notify the view, rather than fire very specific event with one receiver in shared bus?

[carlw]

like the code behind, I bind the view to properties. the controller call versus event bus is setting those properties. binding is still very important

[carlw]

i've also updated the property based on an event bus notification. ex "model ready" is a cue for a controller subscriber to re-set view model properties

I generally only use the eventbus when a property update won't work (eg. asking a control to request focus)
