equivalent? Why? It sure would be handy to pass quoted strings...

Notify sends the notify;  there is no place to send a 'listen' payload.

I assume what they want is the ability to filter notifications, so they only get notifications with a certain payload.

Seems to me that in that case you should just be using different notify values (possibly using the two-argument form of pg_notify) so you can listen on different things depending on what you are interested in.
