Updated.

I will include the updates to this within the updated patch series.

Yes, your understanding is correct. The application we're developing
requires this event type.

That detection for when "something happens", is precisely to do with
understanding when a file is opened for execution. We use permission
events within the application we're developing to either ALLOW or DENY a
particular action being performed against an object. At the moment, we
don't have any way to determine what actually caused a watched object to
be opened, so this is to aid with that, and also help us make a better
judgment how we're to respond to a particular action.
