Expose Workbook events via Excel JavaScript API
Similar to Document.SelectionChanged event, the following Workbook-level events would be useful to have exposed via the JavaScript API (in no particular order):
Activate,Deactivate
BeforeSave,AfterSave
BeforeClose
Shutdown
SheetActivate,SheetDeactivate
SheetBeforeDoubleClick
SheetBeforeRightClick
SheetChange
SheetSelectionChange

BeforeSave,AfterSave
BeforeClose
Shutdown
SheetBeforeDoubleClick
SheetBeforeRightClick
thanks!

There are a couple of events that it would be nice to have that are currently available in the desktop version. For example Scroll events. Currently it is not possible to sync and AddIns UI with the Excel UI.

Same Events that exist on the Desktop version of Office applications should also be available on the web version of Excel and Word and accessible via Javascript
