That's a clever solution. And there's a corresponding revIDEUnsubscribe
message as well as a revIDEUnsubscribeAll for when you're done. I don't
believe any of these are documented, but they're useful and, in my case
at least, essential.
For now the subscribe messages are limited to a predefined set of IDE
messages, but the long-term plan as I understand it is to open up the
mechanism to allow for user-defined messages as well.
