Is it getting a timer to work that's tricky?

If we're not going to make `message' just behave, then a function pair
like `message-maybe' (which wouldn't output anything that arrives too
fast) and a `message-flush' (to say that we're finished with the dubious
messaging) might do the trick.
That doesn't work very well with nested regions of dubious messaging, of
course, but that's probably not very common.
