Answer from julien51:

No... it's unnecessary because the subscriber knows about the outcome
of the verification of intent. The subscriber is the entity which
determines the outcome.
In other words, if the subscribers accepts the verification of intent,
the subscription will be considered as done. If the subscriber refuses
the verification of intent, the subscription will be dropped.
