Thinking about it further, the fact that immediate
events are used for processing compound requets
implies that we will never even call the session_shutdown
when a compound has not been processed completely,
doesn't it?
(That chain of events could only be interrupted by
a signal event.)
But it is good to know that things would also work out
if we did not use immediate events. :)
