I like the concept that subsystems can provided notifications to a central system. I have
to imagine that's going to result in more and better warnings than if an external
systems is responsible for monitoring all subsystems and creating warnings. But it only
covers use cases where the subsystem has all the data it needs. There's still a place
for a higher order of analysis.
That central system should also provide an API for external systems rather than just
report warnings through the WF GUI.
