If I understand correctly, Dario is proposing to introduce another type of
launched/stopped notification in which the client can ask the registrar that it
is interested only in certain signatures. Currently, you can only ask for
notifications on /any/ starting or stopping team. And the registrar has to send
these notifications, even if the client is actually only interested in one or
two signatures and ignores the other notifications. It’s wasteful that the
registrar had to send them in the first place (via ports, IIUC).
