Nathan had written:

  I know that the documentation states that stream_by_recipient should
  only be used in filter_begin, but isn't that only a suggestion based on
  overloading a server? Looking through the code it isn't really clear to
  me why it would be a problem from a technical standpoint.

which no one seemed to dispute, so I took that to mean that it was safe, if 
somewhat inadvisable, to call stream_by_recipient() from filter_end().

The documentation of stream_by_recipient() is a little thin, in particular the 
return value, and whether one needs to call action_discard() to avoid duplicate 
delivery, or if it takes care of that for you (which would seem not to be the 
case, at least in my usage).
