Noel J. Bergman commented on JAMES-124:
---------------------------------------

The easy way to explain this would be to reference common patterns using MQ 
Series and other messaging products.

In a distributed spooling environent, we need to be able to control processes 
running on other nodes.  We could do this with RMI, but that would require 
access and is synchronous.  Alternatively, we can reuse our messaging 
mechanism, and send special "contriol" messages that are understood by the 
receiver.  These messages can be either in the same queue as the "data" 
messages, or in a separate "control" queue.  They don't care content, e.g., 
mail, they carry information to direct behavior.

> Add the ability to "kick" the outgoing queue
