Tip about event naming convention

WebInspectorCodingStyleGuide

 * New class names should use the name of the base class as a suffix. (ex: `TimelinesContentView` < `ContentView`). Exceptions: classes extending `WebInspector.Object` (unless they are a represented object), and deep hierarchies such as `DebuggerSidebarPanel` < `NavigationSidebarPanel` < `SidebarPanel` < `Object`.
 * Spell out `identifier` instead of `id` if not doing so would result in a name ending with capitalized `Id`. For example, just `this.id` is fine, but `this.breakpointId` should be `this.breakpointIdentifier`.
+* An object's events live on the `Event` property of the constructor. Event names are properties on the `Event` object, and property values duplicate the event name, but are lowercased, hyphenated, and prefixed with the constructor name. See the skeleton example below.
