    I think we don't check that callAsync is executed in the same thread as the 
others.


> Add a "scheduleRunAsync()" feature to the RpcEndpoint

>             Project: Flink
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: Distributed Coordination
>         Environment: FLIP-6 feature branch
>            Reporter: Stephan Ewen
>             Fix For: 1.2.0
>
>
> It is a common pattern to schedule a call to be executed in the future. 
> Examples are
>   - delays in retries
>   - heartbeats,
>   - checking for heartbeat timeouts
> I suggest to add a {{scheduleRunAsync()}} method to the {{RpcEndpoint}}.
