Further note: this is the approach I used in pyftpdlib.
An even more abstracted approach would be having poller.poll() return
a dict of {fd: events, fd, events, ...}, similarly to what Tornado
currently does.
This way we wouldn't be forcing the user to provide a handler class
with the 3 methods described above.
