+ * through the NativeScript `Observable` event system (`View.on`/`View.off`).
+ *
+ * Custom plugins registered by applications take priority over this one, so

+ * described in https://angular.dev/guide/templates/event-listeners#extend-event-handling.
+ *
+ * Plugin authors: do not wrap `addEventListener` in `runOutsideAngular` —
+ * zone capture happens inside the zone-patched `View.on()` in the caller's
+ * zone, and change detection relies on it.
