title: How to pass the event target as $emit argument in VueJS2?
body: <p>I have this VueJS 2 template</p>
  
  <pre><code>    var aThing = Vue.component('something',{
      template :` &lt;button @click="$emit('custom-event','hello there')"&gt;Click me&lt;/button&gt;`});
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is it possible to pass the button that was actually pushed as an argument to <code>$emit</code> ? For example in the <code>click</code> event it is usually passed but the event and can be accesed in a function like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>function(event){
    event.target; //I want this
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Here is a jsfiddle of my issue </p>
