The behaviour would be the same as today, but delayed. Ie. block for 
REQ, drop for PUB etc. the only difference being that it will occur only 
after sending HWM messages.

As you may recall, I've proposed setting default HWM to some number, say 
1000, which would solve the problem. The discussion haven't lead to a 
conclusion yet.
