I can't think of any concrete case where it's used, but since it's 
public functionality an RFC is the way to go for Legals.  The studios 
tree did have some instances, but it was unclear if the same delegate 
was really being registered twice.

One argument in favor of multiple timeouts per delegate is 
setTimeout/Interval allow multiple timeouts for a single callback. 
Perhaps this is what folks expect.
