By "weird" I mean that there can be situations at runtime, where the caller, for example that uses `ActionContext.actionsUnavailable()` may be blocked (from time-to-time) + it may execute a letter. Imaginable example: ```java // In some sub class of StreamTask protected void performDefaultAction(ActionConext actionContext) { acquireResourceA(); actionContext.actionsUnavailable(); releaseA(); } ``` In this case, an execution can happen in different orders: ``` acquireResourceA releaseA // continue in the mailbox loop ``` OR ``` acquireResourceA // execute some letter from the mailbox releaseA ``` ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
