<br/>> From 2.11 sketch is usually created before starting, and is a problem not

<br/>> I'm with fell_runner on this. I had been relying on the sketchstarted event
<br/>> to catch the first drawn point of an object until the 2.11 change in

<br/>> object, but I think a new event such as beforesketchstarted might have been
<br/>> a more graceful way of handling it.
