the advantage of that being that the spooler isn't being spammed by
the clients to see if there's new msgs, but instead notifies them when
they are... Also that will make the messages get to the user faster,
since it won't be based on the 1min/5min polling.
I'll try to come up with something, when I have a few mins...
