PrototypeJS事件注册表问题

1.7.3更新后，原型事件注册表似乎存在问题，我正在prototype_event_registry元素存储上使用它来访问单击事件，以便可以重播它们。

这是为了让我能阻止事件和可选恢复这些基础上的回调，一切工作正常，但看的diff为以后1.7.0和1.7.3它似乎被删除？

我知道这是内部的，一开始我可能不应该使用它。无论如何，取决于我的问题：

我已经更新了可以使用的代码，1.7.3但对我来说似乎很hacky，是否有更好的方法来做到这一点？

/**
 * creates a toggling handler for click events taking previous click events into account.
 *
 * w.r.t stopping of a click event, handles cases where the button is a submit or a normal button.
 * in the case of a submit, calling <tt>Event.stop()</tt> should be sufficient as there are no other listeners on the button.
 * however, if a normal button has a handler that calls <tt>save()</tt>, and another handler using client code and calling stop,
 * it will not affect stopping of the event, since <tt>Event.stop</tt> only stops propagation, not other handlers!
 *
 * note that this function will always execute the specified handler before any other defined events.
 *
 * @param {Element} element the element to use for this click event
 * @param {Function} handler the handler to use for this stopping click event, if this handler returns true,
 * all other actions for the click event will be prevented
 * @returns {Element} the element that was supplied as argument

    // assign default handler if none was supplied
    handler = handler || Prototype.emptyFunction;

        element.on('click', function(submitEvent) {
            // call the supplied handler with the current element as context and the event as argument
