Not any more.  Generalized notify goes from one authoritative to another,
typically up the tree.

Nonetheless I agree with you that it's not the right tool here. All of
the existing uses of NOTIFY say "something happened so do a poll you
were planning to do, but do it sooner." EXPIRE seems rather unlike
that.
