If someone can do a pull request introducing a sketchcreated event
type as I described it in the previous thread, I can review it and
merge it into master (or 2.12 branch). The patch would basically
involve (a) replacing the current sketchstarted event by
sketchcreated, and (b) triggering sketchstarted when the first vertex
is added (and (c) adding tests, and making sure they pass in multiple
browsers!).

Thanks.
