	I don't know if Zephyr is still undergoing modification for
   future releases (or if you are the people to send suggestions to), but

You can send comments to `zephyr-comments'.

   1) Modify the design such that default subscriptions are added (only
   once) at initialization, and not on subscription.

The more I think about it, I think there probably should be a special
version of the subscription routines which don't do default
subscriptions.  Something like
ZSubscribeToButDontGiveMeDefaultSubscriptions().
(This would be real easy to do in the current implementation.)

   2) Provide a function ZCancelDefaultSubscriptions().

This should be easy to do; I'll put it a list of things to do.

John
