Yes, but I think that it's a horror to add all of pubsub services which
nodes I possibly will subscribe to.

What can we do with the problem? Since from the distributed nature of
the network, I think that the only thing we can do is to assign the
problem of tracking changes to the receiver's server: it can catch
events and store current revision of the node and then client can be
notified that some new events were received and that it should retrieve
new items manually.
