It might be "working" but I don't like that "bool logged" thing and
marshalling it back'n'forth. This should be waaay simpler.

What's the difference who notifies the timer? The banks polling will call the
notifier if it finds an error to log.

But before we do any of that, we need to figure out what commit broke this so
that we fix stable.
