If I recall correctly, a delay on a path passing particles of type Foo
requires that there be a corresponding FooState class, which can hold
the initial-particle values.  (For instance, delays on Float arcs work
because there is a FloatState class.)

That was a long time ago; now you might actually need a FooArrayState to
hold multiple values.  Or maybe the system will make an array for you.

In any case, you can't put a delay on a path carrying user-defined-type
particles unless you have a corresponding State class.  That would
probably be a tad difficult for particle types derived from Message,
since a MessageState class would probably need to support all possible
Message types.  You might be better off to promote your private particle
type into a full-fledged particle type that's not derived from Message.
