[zeromq-dev] Async replies?

Hi Martin et al.,

I know there was some talk on the subject of async replies on the list a
while back, can anyone fill me in on whether it is in the pipeline to be
implemented?

What I mean by async replies is simply replying to messages sent by a
REQ application to a REP application in a different order than received,
or sending a message REP -> REQ without receiving a request first.

Looking at src/rep.cpp it seems like it should be possible to do this by
keeping track of the relevant "reply_pipe".

Thanks,
Conrad
