I don't think RTTs should block UI either, but startup RTTs mean we
cannot send or receive messages for several RTTs, and that's a very
real problem over slower networks. For my purposes, "mobile" isn't the
driving factor, and doesn't really qualify as a "slower network", but
it's nice to solve and will, I think, bring some benefits.
