Sounds good to me Richard although Jacque did get a bee in her bonnet when we 
started adding adjectives to the language last year (globally, recursively) ;-)

Personally I think all IO should at least have an asynchronous option similar 
to sockets so there should be a `with message` option on everything. Actually I 
think just about everything that blocks should have that option because 
blocking is just plain bad for everyone but the absolute newbie.
