BTW, no timeouts are needed at all with a hybrid start-simple-and-build-up
approach, since the short-lived client aspect is solved more simply. So,
if we start simple and build, good chance we will end up with a far simpler
final solution too.
Ultimately, your call Lukas - I've put in my 2c re what I'm after and the
steps I'd like to see before merging this beast - please keep us informed
as you progress, if I can help out any further just lemme know. Thanks!
cheers.
