Stash and pipeTo is probably the best you can do today.
The reason for things to be as they are is because it amounts to what's
called a "selective receive" and it is typically a cause of poor
performance during runtime (since it stalls the actor).

If you have a more typical "pipeline processing" requirement you should
definitely look into Akka Streams, with its "mapAsync" operation—with a
more constrained target domain as stream processing is, it is possible to
create more targeted solutions.
Does that help?
