Const transitivity is bad sometimes

For example, I have this piece of (useless) code:
http://paste.dprogramming.com/dpmmwnah
If there were more subscribers the same message would be sent to every one
of them. And there may be several messages, carrying the same notifier as
their data. While compiling this I got the following errors (DMD 2.009):
main.d(28): function main.SystemShutdownNotifier.addSubscriber
(Subscriber) does not match parameter types (Subscriber)
main.d(28): Error: (cmd.notifier).addSubscriber can only be called on a
mutable object, not const(SystemShutdownNotifier)
I know. Notifier has become const because const is transitive, but in this
example I don't need transitivity. I can't even think of a workaround for
that. Maybe someone can help?
