Do we agree on the model that the signal is a simple verb and we keep
only a small dictionary of _static_ signal strings and no fancy compositions?
And we should reserve the "add" and "remove" only for the hotplug events.

Here is the first user besides the hotplug event, for notification of
filesystem changes with "mount" and "umount" signals for the blockdevice.
