That was confusing.

"destroy-event" (note the use of underscores was deprecated)
is a signal too.  Some signals are emitted as a consequence
of events, others are emitted on other occasions, but that
does not make the former less signalish.

The reason why callbacks connected to "destroy-event" are
almost always useless is different:
