Discussion about how to solve some timing issues

Opened for discussion purposes.

#87 should make this obsolete, but I would like to hear your thoughts about making handler-side information available in the receive-loop.

@daisybytes what do you mean "making handler-side information available in the receive-loop"? Could you reference the specific code?

[ghost]

In the core ns receive-loop gets passed number-of-handler-threads-running and thereby knows how many handlers are currently running. Even though I would assume that the receiver and handler are (and maybe should be completely) independent from each other there might also be a situation where the receiver would want to know if there are still handlers running before completely shutting down. That was what came to my mind that day.

Closing this for now.
