It occured to me that this window can be minimized by the simple process of
putting a non-idempotent mailet in its own processor, or having it set the
state.  Actually, I realized earlier today how to completely eliminate the
window within a custom mailet under carefully controlled circumstances, but
the mailet has to be specially written to do it.  Not something that would
generally be done.
