Description

But we _shouldn't_ just make an HTTP request to the current Mist target in the database; not super reliable. Some kind of Rabbit/Analyzer scheme here.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how multistream targets reach the Mist server and where updates currently wait for a stream restart; the issue specifically rejects an HTTP request to the current database target and points to a Rabbit/Analyzer scheme. Done means target changes propagate immediately without a stream restart, with the reliability behavior agreed and verified.
