Store nothing instead of ['dont_notify'] for events with no notification required: much as it would be nice to be able to tell between the event not having been processed and there being no notification for it, this isn't worth filling up the table with ['dont_notify'] I think. Consequently treat the empty actions array as dont_notify and filter dont_notify out of the result.
