Client messages not necessarily lead to actual restacking. Besides that, we have a number of notifies which could be replaced by listening to client messages (such as state changes), but if every plugin listens to X messages and decodes them for its own, IMO this will lead to quite a bit of overhead. In the context of the other notifies, I think it makes sense to have a restack notify.
