Yes, the current state is more or less wrapping the existing notifiers and
stopping them is not a brilliant idea. I've tried and it exploded nicely in my
face. The ones we convert over to the state machine will be stoppable and
reversible. And at the end the notifiers will be gone and with them the can't
stop stuff, except maybe for a few crucial points.
