FWIW, this smells like another brewing scalability problem, given that 
these are entirely driver-specific. Not sure off-hand how feasible it 
might be, but my instinct says that a neat solution would be to encode 
them right in the JSON, e.g.:

	"FormatAttr": { "type": 0x5 }

such that jevents should then only really need to consider whether an 
event is defined in terms of a raw "ConfigCode", one or more 
"FormatAttr"s which it can then parse dynamically, or reasonable special 
cases like "EventCode" (given how "event" is one of the most commonly 
used formats).

Thanks,
Robin.
