Right, and although as you (Jeff) mention, while XCB (actually, as described, 
would be a forechannel extension of XCB, XCB allows a server to extend a 
registration, but doesn't provide guidance for the server, as presently 
written, we should perhaps do both) can provide a more satisfactory model, 
there was general acceptance of the idea that viced could expire callbacks 
later, by administrator preference.  A patch to do it was stalled because Simon 
requested a better mechanism to specify timeouts, but not in principle.
