Indeed! The cleanup and simplification of the  g_lock code
with this mechanism is already impressive. It is a really
good and natural abstraction of the various mechanisms for
waiting for a record entry to become available, etc.
I also especially like the clean (and async) new
ctdb_conn  (replacement for ctdbd_conn).

Not being a native speaker either, I think this is a really good
proposal. I was also somewhat confused by the name. For me, the name
"msg_channel" seems to nicely reflect the concept implemented.
