Hm. This would probably be a matter of turning
"event_base_foreach_event_()" into a public, supported API.  My main
obstacle for that is that I'm not sure entirely what the documentation
should say about what functions the callback would be allowed to
invoke.  Still, that's not insurmountable if somebody's interested in
writing a patch (targetting 2.1, of course) -- 2.0 doesn't have
event_base_foreach_event_() internally.

It probably should!  A patch would be welcome.
