post_respond is IKC::ClientLite only, which is a blocking client for
embeding in "small" perl-spaces, like mod_perl... Or am I missing
something obvious?
Also, I want IKC to be transparent. IE, if $sesion is an opaque way of
specifying a session (either an alias, IKC specifier or reference),
$kernel->post($session=>'event', .....)
should be totaly transparent. post() works because of subscriptions, but
doing something like call() can never work. I want a way that would do
the equivalent easily.
$kernel->mutter($session=>'event', 'return_event', ....)
