* <p>Sets up event delegation on a container element. The delegated event

* references at least one node that should trigger the subscription
* callback.</p>
*
* <p>Selector string filters will trigger the callback if the event originated
* from a node that matches it or is contained in a node that matches it.
* Function filters are called for each Node up the parent axis to the
* subscribing container node, and receive at each level the Node and the event
* object. The function should return true (or a truthy value) if that Node
* should trigger the subscription callback. Note, it is possible for filters
* to match multiple Nodes for a single event. In this case, the delegate
* callback will be executed for each matching Node.</p>
*
* <p>For each matching Node, the callback will be executed with its 'this'
* object set to the Node matched by the filter (unless a specific context was
* provided during subscription), and the provided event's
* <code>currentTarget</code> will also be set to the matching Node. The
* containing Node from which the subscription was originally made can be
* referenced as <code>e.container</code>.
*
* @method delegate
* @param type {String} the event type to delegate
* @param fn {Function} the callback function to execute. This function
* will be provided the event object for the delegated event.

* event or a function to test target and its parents for a match
* @param context optional argument that specifies what 'this' refers to.

Regex to test for disabled elements during filtering. This is only relevant to
IE to normalize behavior with other browsers, which swallow events that occur
to disabled elements. IE fires the event from the parent element instead of the
original target, though it does preserve `event.srcElement` as the disabled
element. IE also supports disabled on `<a>`, but the event still bubbles, so it
acts more like `e.preventDefault()` plus styling. That issue is not handled here
because other browsers fire the event on the `<a>`, so delegate is supported in
both cases.
