Collision with promises .then could cause some problems - almost the same pronunciation when reading the code, 1 letter difference -> typos, etc.

We could go with EventTarget#upon(). But I still like when() a little better. I don't think then() and when() have the same pronunciation just because they rhyme.

I don't think then() and when() have the same pronunciation just because they rhyme.

As a non-native English speaker, in most cases I cannot perceive the difference between them without context.

Given the discussion in #39 (comment) and #39 (comment), and the general support for those comments I'm seeing, I'm comfortable moving forward with this PR. I'll merge this PR later today.
