Hey Andrus-- Thanks for the response and sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
Good point about the local context, that makes sense and I should have seen that. So my source studying took me to EventManager and DataChannelListener. It *looks* like the GraphEvents should be communicated over the JMS EventBridge but I wanted to confirm that with you. Assuming so, I think I can see how I could respond to those events similarly to how I was trying to respond to lifecycle events.
