Indeed, registering signal subscribers isn't very useful when there is
always exactly one recipient.

Support for one-way method invocations (= don't care about return value)
would be almost identical to such a signal. We don't support those at
the moment, as far as I remember: the caller must use synchronous method
calls (which wait for a result) or use asynchronous with callback. It
could use a callback which doesn't do anything.
