Yes, except you don't want to use it, because it would throw in far too many round trips, some of which might be delayed for ridiculously long periods of time, even while new events continue to be delivered. So, you basically want to keep it all in-client unless it's absolutely strictly necessary to do otherwise. Cheers, Daniel
