Cool; I guess then for this topic I'm missing a review from core committers
(Gert, are you around?), so that I could address feedback. And propose docs
then.

IMO the next logical and handy DSL enhancement would be introduction of
"every(period)", as alias for
"from(timer:someGeneratedName?period=equivalentInMs)"

Thanks,
Pavel
