I've found v3 :-)
But it isn't that much better than v2.

This is wrong.
If the old state is PF and the application hasn't exposed PF the event should be
ignored.

Again the event should be supressed if PF isn't exposed.

I also haven't spotted where the test that the application has actually enabled
state transition events is in the code.
I'd have thought it would be anything is built and allocated.
