I looked in the patch, but I haven't installed it or anything.  I'm
still waiting for people to get involved with design discussion on the

I'm glad you don't support inter-session calling.  You really can't do
that without at least setting POE::Kernel's notion of the active
session.  Otherwise a callee's alarms (and other resources) will be
associated with the caller session.  That's obviously wrong.
