You may be able to send a list instead of a tuple, depending on the type 
of objects you are sending.  We will
describe this in more detail in developer docs shortly.

The public id is embedded in the event so you don't have to send it 
yourself.  Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're using it for?

It is a permanent change.  I suggested comparing with the 
SharedAppClient.eventClient.id because this will
allow your app to work with any of the AG3 releases.  When 3.0 and 3.0.1 
can be safely ignored, you can
compare against the user's public id without concern for this 
(historical) problem.
