> {{AkkaUtils.ask}} asks another actor and awaits its response. Since this
> constitutes a blocking call, it might be potentially harmful when used in an
> actor thread. In order to encourage developers to program asynchronously I
> propose to remove this helper function. That forces the developer to handle
> futures explicitly.
