I asked the question because I hadn't looked, and it seemed like an easy
mistake to make.  I agree that it seems OK.  However, I think that the
loop in ovsdb_idl_run() can reset request_id without calling
ovsdb_idl_send_cond_change() afterward.  That'll happen on the next trip
through the main loop but at least in theory that could happen much
later, so perhaps we should call it right away, e.g.:

diff --git a/lib/ovsdb-idl.c b/lib/ovsdb-idl.c
index 341951d..82c8584 100644
--- a/lib/ovsdb-idl.c

+                ovsdb_idl_send_cond_change(idl);
                 break;

Probably the VLOG calls should be rate-limited.
