+ * MORE ON PROCESSING, QUEUES and FILTERING
+ * All filtering needs to be done BEFORE messages are enqueued to an
+ * action. In previous code, part of the filtering was done at the
+ * "remote end" of the action queue, which lead to problems in
+ * non-direct mode (because then things run asynchronously). In order
+ * to solve this problem once and for all, I have changed the code so
+ * that all filtering is done before enq, and processing on the
+ * dequeue side of action processing now always executes whatever is
+ * enqueued. This is the only way to handle things consistently and
+ * (as much as possible) in a queue-type agnostic way. However, it is
+ * a rather radical change, which I unfortunately needed to make from
+ * stable version 5.8.1 to 5.8.2. If new problems pop up, you now know
+ * what may be their cause. In any case, the way it is done now is the
+ * only correct one.
+ * A problem is that, under fortunate conditions, we use the current
+ * batch for the output system as well. This is very good from a performance
+ * point of view, but makes the distinction between enq and deq side of
+ * the queue a bit hard. The current idea is that the filter condition
+ * alone is checked at the deq side of the queue (seems to be unavoidable
+ * to do it that way), but all other complex conditons (like failover
+ * handling) go into the computation of the filter condition. For
+ * non-direct queues, we still enqueue only what is acutally necessary.
+ * Note that in this case the rest of the code must ensure that the filter
+ * is set to "true". While this is not perfect and not as simple as
+ * we would like to see it, it looks like the best way to tackle that
+ * beast.
