Problem
EventType is tightly coupled with Broker. In fact, it has a broker attribute in its spec. We should decouple EventType from it.
The EventType registry itself should be "autonomous", while other constructs (e.g., brokers, channels) should be able to refer to it (ack @markfisher )
This idea has been floating around for a while now, probably since the EventType registry inception (ack @n3wscott).
We should also probably add few more things to it, such as available extensions an EventType can produce, etc. Still TBD.
Creating this issue separately from #2484, which mainly refers to improving the current implementation.
Persona:
Which persona is this feature for?
Developer
Exit Criteria
A decoupled EventType registry, "queryable" from different constructs
Time Estimate (optional):
infinite
Additional context (optional)
#2484 for some initial proposals there...
