Greetings!

Looks like Futures inside actors are better than splitting async processing 
into several message steps (which requires naming messages, passing context 
in them, etc).

Is there something wrong with this code or maybe something like that 
already implemented in a better way?

case class ExecuteRunnable(r: Runnable)
class AnotherActor extends Actor {
    def withCustomEC(f: ExecutionContext => Receive): Receive = {

      def handleExecuteRunnable: Receive = {
        case ExecuteRunnable(r) => println("Handling ExecuteRunnable"); 
r.run()
      }

      handleExecuteRunnable orElse  f(new ExecutionContext {
        override def execute(runnable: Runnable) = {
          println("Sending ExecuteRunnable")
          self forward ExecuteRunnable(runnable)
        }
        override def reportFailure(t: Throwable) = ???
      })
    }

    override def receive = withCustomEC(implicit ec => {
        case _ =>
          println("got msg")
          Future { 42 }.foreach(_ => println("Future completed"))
    })
}
