Emit event for document that is about to be saved, or email that is about to be sent

there are numerous regulatory scenarios where information needs to be captured as part of a save or send event.

This might be mandatory information as part of regulatory compliance, or information that the enterprise requires prior saving a document (e.g. management information of some sort).

The most natural place to capture this is at the time of either a document being saved, or an email being sent (once the user has entered their content and therefore understands what metadata is appropriate).

If an event could be bound to it would introduce some interesting use cases within the larger business environment.

It looks like there have been some prior internal discussions to implement this (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42157017/word-2016-add-in-detect-document-save).

Would it be possible to add this?
