Thank you for adding these!

Should there also be notes added to the wp-on, wp-on-window, and wp-on-document sections to call out the async alternatives?

The callback passed as the reference receives [the event](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Event) (`event`), and the returned value by this callback is ignored. When the element is removed from the DOM, the event listener is also removed.

### `wp-on-document-async`

Similar to `wp-on-async`. An optimized version of `wp-on-document` that prevents blocking the main thread on long tasks. Use this directive for any `wp-on-document` that doesn't need the `event` object (`event.preventDefault()`, `event.stopPropagation()`, etc.)

Use this directive for any `wp-on` that doesn't need synchronous access to the `event` object, in particular the methods `event.preventDefault()`, `event.stopPropagation()`, and `event.stopImmediatePropagation()`. This event listener is also added as `passive`.
