What's the motivation for adding vector support? Is that needed for  
something specific?

My response to the “some events not received by broccoli” thread on the bro users list should clarify what precipitated it. Generally, it seems like some common bro types/events will now have vectors in them, and not fixing this could be a common pitfall for users. It didn’t look like it would take more than a day and a full broccoli replacement could be some time away, so working on it seemed worthwhile.
