That's a good paper, but I wish it didn't claim to be a *universal*
model for asynchronous operations because that model is completely
unsuitable for persistent storage i/o. I had that argument with
Nicholas @ Microsoft Research actually, and I think I may well have
persuaded him as they're seeing the same problems of fit.
