** [tickets:#748] IMM: Clarify that completed-callback is meaningsless for 
appliers**

**Status:** fixed

Some applications mistakenly try to use the completed callback for appliers
as a trigger to fetch the "before image" of objects that are changed in the CCB.
The before image may be needed by an applier if the applier does not 
continuously keep a copy of the monitored data and the *action* that the applier
is expected to take in the apply callabck depends on bot the "before image" and
the "after image", i.e. the exact change, not just the replacement value. 

This will not work for appliers because the completed callback is invoked but
not waited on by the immsv. Waiting on a reply from completed callbacks from
all appliers makes no senses since they dont participate in validation and 
this would slow down the apply of a CCB by an unknown ammount. The effect
would also be that appliers could veto a CCB by simply hanging in the callback,
intentionally or not.
