Event is such an overloaded and generic term (event logger, *kernel*
event logger, "protocol" events in other subsystems, etc.), that it is
confusing for the name an object. Events are kinda like signals, but not
exactly, so we chose not to name them 'signals' to prevent further
confusion. "Alerts" felt like a good fit, since they are used to "alert"
an application that something of significance should be addressed and
because an "alert handler" can be proactively registered with an alert.

This better aligns with the actual functionality of the object.
