I had exactly the same thing in mind, but was thinking of two
callbacks, to register and unregister. But yeah, we aren't going to
register for now at least :)

I wasn't sure if that should be done or not, since we also have
ready() callback. So was reluctant to suggest it earlier. But that can
work well as well.
