I am curious, why does notify not support a string argument of some kind, to
pass to the other connections? It seems it would be a little more useful.

My application does not exactly require this feature, but it seems more
intuitive. After all, the current implementation requires a separate "LISTEN"
for each possible event.

Is this due to oracle compatibility issues? Is it too difficult for it's
usefulness?

Thanks,
Jeff
