If I need to use an application scope, can I use GlobalScope? Or I need to create my own scope?

yes, you can use GlobalScope inside app-scoped components or object (singletons) for operations that don't require cancellation

[Erik]

Agreed. It's arguable what operations would neither require cancellation nor handling of completion (either successful or exceptional). It's somewhat similar to the discussions around the singleton pattern and (in)valid uses for it.
