One is planned though? It would be nice. It's really not hard to write
an AutoBackoffNodeRequester-derived background insertion class... I can
write a background insert-CHK-from-tempbucket-queue in something like an
hour. The code is pretty well-tested. The only concern would be
preventing the queue from overrunning the datastore... it's easy enough
to limit the size of the queue and the size of the blocks relative to
the datastore though.
