 * This class is used for remote events sent by the lookup service.  It
 * extends RemoteEvent with methods to obtain the service ID of the matched
 * item, the transition that triggered the event, and the new state of
 * the item.
 * <p>
 * Sequence numbers for a given event ID are strictly increasing.  If there
 * is no gap between two sequence numbers, no events have been missed; if
 * there is a gap, events might (but might not) have been missed.  For
 * example, a gap might occur if the lookup service crashes, even if no
 * events are lost due to the crash.
