Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's currently only doable with jQuery to extend the plugin's functionality client-side because it only dispatches jQuery events.

Describe the desired solution
It would be great if, in addition, the plugin would also dispatch native JavaScript events. It's basically only two lines of code per event. 😉

Describe the alternatives that you have considered
None.

Additional context
See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Events/Creating_and_triggering_events for more details on native JS events.

Thanks!
