Description

Hi. I'm looking for an idiomatic way to intercept a server-initiated notification (say window/logMessage) to hook some custom functionality. The only related example I could find uses a middleware to intercept the client-initiated request, which does not seem applicable in this case. Notice that, in my case, I would need to keep forward the notification to the client so that the notification is handled as usual. Any pointer would be appreciated.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how the existing middleware is implemented for client initiated requests and how window/logMessage notifications are handled. Determine where to add middleware support for server initiated notifications while still forwarding them to the client.
