If you take a look at set_event_handler in wxeud.e, you'll see that it now
discards the frmMain, and just uses mnuFile (which is the documented
way to do it).

This is a possibility.  Basically, it would just be a for loop in 
set_event_handler.  The only issue is that there is likely code out there
that still uses the deprecated way of doing it, so we'd start breaking things.
Maybe for the next release.  In the mean time, you could always wrap it 
to do that yourself.  Or maybe add a new function (set_handler).  That
way new code could take advantage without worrying about breaking old
code.
