Also:
Extrinsictype from config (We just treat every extrinsic as a collection of bytes at the moment, and if/when we want to decode them properly we can treat them like events and ask for a type/shape at decode time).api.blocks().subscribe_*()the only way to subscribe to streams of things (removing similar functionality from Events to avoid lots of repetition and simplify the API surface).FilterEventsstuff; it makes much more sense to ask for events via this new blocks API (either for the entire block or for specific extrinsics), and it was all rather complicated.
