How will you know all instances? Sending a broadcast is okay, but collecting 
the responses would mean to have all instances registered somewhere. What 
about the situation where a registered application dies? Wait for a certain 
amount of time? How will you know, that it really died? E.g. a long search 
operation could be running.
