/**
 * <p>Adds subscription and delegation support for mouseenter and mouseleave
 * events.  Unlike mouseover and mouseout, these events aren't fired from child
 * elements of a subscribed node.</p>
 *
 * <p>This avoids receiving three mouseover notifications from a setup like</p>
 *
 * <pre><code>div#container > p > a[href]</code></pre>
 *
 * <p>where</p>
 *
 * <pre><code>Y.one('#container').on('mouseover', callback)</code></pre>
 *
 * <p>When the mouse moves over the link, one mouseover event is fired from
 * #container, then when the mouse moves over the p, another mouseover event is
 * fired and bubbles to #container, causing a second notification, and finally
 * when the mouse moves over the link, a third mouseover event is fired and
 * bubbles to #container for a third notification.</p>
 *
 * <p>By contrast, using mouseenter instead of mouseover, the callback would be
 * executed only once when the mouse moves over #container.</p>
 *
 * @module event
 * @submodule event-mouseenter
