Would creating a dynamic redirection function as delegate serve
your purpose?

You can also pass object having `opCall` to `to_delegate` and th
is could also provide dynamic dispatch.

An alternative method would be to recreate the timer, like so:
auto timer = createTimer();
timer.rearm(duration, /*...*/);
auto timer = createTimer();
timer.rearm(duration - timer.elapsed);
However, I can't find an `elapsed` property or similar in the
documentation.
I did not try it myself, but you can make an object which is
accessible from both callback scope and outside scope. Depending
on the state of the object it will call different functions. So
if you want to change the callback in the meantime, you just
change the state of the object.
