Yeah, or the other possibility could be to let the newsub information
get allocated in the current transaction context and reset the
subscription context if we decide not to exit from the worker. Then
copy/get the subscription info in subscription context but not sure if
that is worth it. The minor oddity in the proposed approach is that
the worker will exit in many cases after allocating the new context
but that may be the best we can do here.
