Maybe to some degree. I don't think that a server crash or something
like a block-read error is ever tolerable though, no matter how silly
the user is with their event trigger logic. If we go down that road
it will be impossible to know whether errors that are currently
reliable indicators of software or hardware problems are in fact
caused by event triggers. Of course, if an event trigger causes the
system to error out in some softer way, that's perfectly fine...
