It depends on the "onbeforeX" event definition.

As many onbefore events, I expect it to be very related to their relative "on" events.

For example, while "oncut" is fired as soon as "cut" is executed (after its effects), I expect "onbefurecut" to happen right *before* the cut effects takes place.

Using it as a menu item enabler is totally unexpected and if an event system is really needed for that, better to come with a different event name for it, otherwise we would need to have an "onbefore" event for every single possible menu option, which is senseless.

Of course, you guys can always inject a new definition for the before events on HTML5 specs just to match your current behavior, but this would sound definitely weird.
