Thanks, Andreas.
How would you use accept-process-output with an asynchronous process
channel? E.g. when would you call it? How do you know when there is data
available? The only way (that I see) of knowing when there is data
available is when the filter is first called but can accept-process-
output be called from within the filter; wouldn't it lead to potentially
massive recursiveness as the filter is called again and again?
