ShareJS 0.7 - shout

[hatpick]

Is there any replacement for 'shout' from 0.6.x, if yes what is it and if no is it possible to add something like that again?

Unfortunately I don't have time to work on this - the changes needed are
pretty small in code size but need to be in the right places. Basically
shouts need to be passed to all clients without hitting the database or
changing the document.

Here's the code changes that were needed for 0.6:

See the pull discussion for some alternative approaches.

Yeah I'll add back a 'shout'-like message as part of the presence code. Its a lot more complicated now that livedb can scale.

Great, I was using it for awareness-related purposes.

... I'm going to leave this issue open until we add the functionality back.
