     * All event objects have at least the following properties:
     *  - *object* {Object} A reference to map.events.object.
     *  - *element* {DOMElement} A reference to map.events.element.

     * Browser events have the following additional properties:

     *      to the the map viewport).
     *  - other properties that come with browser events

     *  - *preaddlayer* triggered before a layer has been added.  The event
     *      object will include a *layer* property that references the layer  
     *      to be added. When a listener returns "false" the adding will be 
     *      aborted.
     *  - *addlayer* triggered after a layer has been added.  The event object
     *      will include a *layer* property that references the added layer.
     *  - *preremovelayer* triggered before a layer has been removed. The event
     *      object will include a *layer* property that references the layer  
     *      to be removed. When a listener returns "false" the removal will be 
     *      aborted.
     *  - *removelayer* triggered after a layer has been removed.  The event
     *      object will include a *layer* property that references the removed
     *      layer.
     *  - *changelayer* triggered after a layer name change, order change,
     *      opacity change, params change, visibility change (due to resolution
     *      thresholds) or attribution change (due to extent change). Listeners
     *      will receive an event object with *layer* and *property* properties.
     *      The *layer* property will be a reference to the changed layer. The
     *      *property* property will be a key to the changed property (name,
     *      order, opacity, params, visibility or attribution).
     *  - *movestart* triggered after the start of a drag, pan, or zoom
     *  - *move* triggered after each drag, pan, or zoom
     *  - *moveend* triggered after a drag, pan, or zoom completes
     *  - *zoomend* triggered after a zoom completes

     *   very worthy of mention is that simply removing a layer from a map
     *   will not cause the removal of any popups which may have been created
     *   by the layer. this is due to the fact that it was decided at some
     *   point that popups would not belong to layers. thus there is no way 
     *   for us to know here to which layer the popup belongs.
     *    
     *     A simple solution to this is simply to call destroy() on the layer.
     *     the default OpenLayers.Layer class's destroy() function
     *     automatically takes care to remove itself from whatever map it has
     *     been attached to. 
     * 
     *     The correct solution is for the layer itself to register an 
     *     event-handler on "removelayer" and when it is called, if it 
     *     recognizes itself as the layer being removed, then it cycles through
     *     its own personal list of popups, removing them from the map.
     * 
     * Parameters:
     * layer - {<OpenLayers.Layer>} 
     * setNewBaseLayer - {Boolean} Default is true
