I think "invoke" is an unintuitive name there.  It's not "invoking the
request" or "invoking the client".  Invoke usually implies a named piece of
application logic.  I think in this case "send" or "send_request" would be
better, as in "send the request (and this is a request for which I expect a
synchronous response)".
