But if for some reason they really did set it at some point in their code and then later on want to revert to the default behavior, they can just pass in a handler that returns `SHUTDOWN_STREAMTHREAD_THREAD` themselves. If that's really what they want, then they should specify it. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
