This is sort of a solution - for many cases at least, but not for all. I even 
already tried it last night. However, the backend should notify on both 
events - only that most listeneres would ignore what they are not concerned 
about.

We still need to implement the "unlisten" then, to unregister interest for 
example in the ex-current-patient.
