Can you give me another scenario, that hopefully touches on all the key 
bits, so if I could implement it, I'd have to have pretty much the full API?

Cool, but I need something more concrete, like a scenario or test case, 
to get a solid grip on this kind of material.

If we downplay the bit about the actors in SWAT0 being on different 
systems, it seems to provide at least a very basic scenario.

Perhaps something like my usual Facebook usage these days:

1.  Alice posts a link to a news story, with some commentary on it
2.  Bob is a close follower of Alice, so he's notified of the story
3.  Bob signals positive feedback on the story, which makes him more 
likely to see such stories in the future
4.  Carol is notified of the story
5.  Carol posts a comment, in which she mentions Dave
6.  Dave is notified because of that mention, and reads the story
7.  Dave chooses to re-share the original story.

etc....
