Maybe i 'm unclear on this, but i don 't know of any components that fire any sort of "init " event right when the component initializes (please correct me if i 'm wrong, because i very well might be). Your case seems to be unique in that you want to dispatch an event immediately upon initialization, and that 's why the listener isn 't defined yet when the event fires.
As Tatsuo pointed out, you need to be able to set up the listener before any events fire in order to capture that event, which you can 't do in the example you give without using onEnterFrame or setInterval.
