Once again I replied in the diff instead of the review. One of these days I'll 
remember not to do that:

The caller owns the metric. If they decide to destroy the metric and then use 
it they're doing C++ wrong.

There might be a race between a metric going out of scope, remove being 
dispatched, and someone hitting the end point before the process runs remove. I 
suppose the best option is to wait on remove's returned Future? I don't know 
enough about the guarantees of order of calls in libprocess to know if this 
case is a concern.
