Actually I would like to look into that as well.
I just don't like the current rewriting code.

Yes and no :)

The idea is that once suspend is called you return
from the method immediatly. Same goes for all
consecutive calls on the callstack.

You don't have to worry about that :)

As a side effect of contributing to a
to a research paper I've written some
documentation. Will put that online soon.

That should help to get you started and
seeing the full picture.

Thanks for your participation!
