Maybe this capability should be reserved.
Can you explain further how that'd help? The problem there is that if you have two competing completions, where one isn't a timeout, there's nothing synchronizing the reuse of the request. IOW, the losing one can easily complete the next recycle instance. The atomic bitops might feel like more protection but it's just feels.
