I haven't seen the patch? Can you check you really attached it.

As for the events... There is probably (I haven't seen the code) another 
way: Pass the callback through to synedit. IDE gives a callback to 
SourceNotebook. But that does not mean that SourceNotebook has to be the 
one who calls it. It can just pass the Method-Reference to SourcEditor, 
which passes it to SynEdit.
Source Notebook still needs to keep a copy, as it may open further 
SourceEditors.
