I think that there's some interesting directions to take signals.

Firstly having it such that an object is notified when somebody is
matching against its signals, and thus it can choose not to emit them
unless anybody's listening -- reducing bus wakeup, traffic, etc.  This
could be handled entirely in bindings.

I'd also quite like the idea of signal feedback, so the object can know
whether anybody opted to respond to a signal and find out whether they
are finished.  Maybe I mean broadcast method calls? :-)
