`removeEventListener` does not work because raw function is not passed

[hamidb80]

Description

import std/[dom]

proc onkeydownEventHandler(e: Event) =
  echo "hey"

window.addEventListener    "keydown", onkeydownEventHandler
window.removeEventListener "keydown", onkeydownEventHandler

<script src="./play.js"></script>

Current Output

`hey` is printed after every key press

Expected Output

it should not not log anything when pressing keys

Possible Solution

here's the produced code when -d:danger:

Temporary1 = onkeydownEventHandler__play_u2.bind(null); Temporary1.ClP_0 = onkeydownEventHandler__play_u2; Temporary1.ClE_0 = null;
window.addEventListener("keydown", Temporary1, false);
Temporary2 = onkeydownEventHandler__play_u2.bind(null); Temporary2.ClP_0 = onkeydownEventHandler__play_u2; Temporary2.ClE_0 = null;
window.removeEventListener("keydown", Temporary2);

it would work simply if the following code would be generated:

window.addEventListener("keydown", onkeydownEventHandler__play_u2, false);
window.removeEventListener("keydown", onkeydownEventHandler__play_u2);

perhaps it is good to allow addr someFunction in js backend for workaround. i.e. the following code should produce the above code:

window.addEventListener    "keydown", addr onkeydownEventHandler
window.removeEventListener "keydown", addr onkeydownEventHandler

workaround

import std/[dom]

proc onkeydownEventHandler(e: Event) =
  echo "hey"

let e1: proc (event: Event) {.closure.} = onkeydownEventHandler
window.addEventListener    "keydown", e1
window.removeEventListener "keydown", e1
