    Is there a way to clear all event listeners, such as 
    visualElement.UnregisterAllListeners();
    ?

    Maybe I will just have to stop using lambdas and shift everything into a dedicated function.

    I have seen you can do this, too:
    Code (csharp):
    1. EventCallback<MouseDownEvent> handler = e =>
    2. {
    3.     ...
    4. };
    5.  
    6. ve.UnregisterCallback(handler);
    7. ve.RegisterCallback(handler);

    This is not possible at the moment.

    As you suggest you can unregister a callback by keeping a reference to it or using a method.

    To temporarily disable mouse events on an objet you can set its pickingMode property to Ignore.

    Good point, an UnregisterAllListeners or UnregisterAllCallbacks method could be very useful!
    :)
