Re: listen not schema-aware

Per the docs:

    Commonly, the notification name is the same as the name of some
    table in the database, and the notify event essentially means, "I
    changed this table, take a look at it to see what's new". But no
    such association is enforced by the NOTIFY and LISTEN commands.

i.e. the LISTEN/NOTIFY argument is not the name of a relation, so it
wouldn't make much sense to schema-qualify it.
