KOM events have nothing to do with x11 ones.

You normally send events via EMIT_EVENT (which indirectly calls
destination_object->receive()) . This makes the destination object pass
the event through all (there) installed event filters and then finally
(if it wasn't filtered out) hands it over to KOMBase::event, which you
should re-implement if you want to receive events properly.

Hope this helps,
 Simon
