Is it possible to notify handler if task didn't change anything?
I'm creating a backup prior to executing a task, and want to
remove it if nothing changed. Currently I do it like so:

  - command: cp {{backsrc}} {{backdst}}

  - apt_repository: repo="{{ item }}" state=absent update_cache=false
    register: aptrem
    with_items: reporem

  - apt_repository: repo="{{ item }}" state=present update_cache=false
    register: aptadd
    with_items: repoadd

  - command: rm {{backdst}}
    when: aptrem.changed == 0 and aptadd.changed == 0

  - apt: update_cache=true
    when: aptrem.changed != 0 or aptadd.changed != 0
