event-namespace doesn't appear to work

[tzneal]

When using a non-default event-namespace, events don't appear to get emitted.

From the code, there are two cases:

• If there is no involved object, event must be in the default namespace
• The event must be in the namespace of the object (default or empty namespace for Node objects)

Does this option serve another purpose?

@tzneal is this related? kubernetes/kubernetes#89062 (comment)

Maybe so, there doesn't seem to be clear docs about it and if this should work.

I don't think kubernetes/kubernetes#89062 (comment) is related to the namespace issue

The rule for events is that they have to be in the same namespace as the related object, or the default namespace for cluster-scoped objects
