There doesn't seem to be a way to do the same for the other overloads:
* The `Runnable` overload is specified to be invoked _when the value becomes 
invalid_, which isn't happening when a subscription is added. Eagerly invoking 
the runnable without a valid->invalid transition does not conform to the 
specification of an invalidation listener.
* The `BiConsumer` overload accepts two values: the old value and the new 
value. But we don't know the old value, we only know the current value. Using 
the current value as both old and new value does not conform to the 
specification of a change listener.
