Note: Subscriber-Publisher does not have to involve a global addressing system where anything can subscribe to anything.  One can do a local system based on messages where one can only send a subscription message to an actor whose address you already have.  I don't know how the OP's linked package does it, but the Subscribe-Notify system in Messenger Library is based on subscription messages.

 

Technically, the "low-coupling" message techniques are closely related to subscribing, so one could build on that.
