Hi Martin.  As Dave said, we built that extended generalized request
interface so that other libraries could make progress (particularly,
the POSIX AIO interfaces).  We haven't consider which if any MPI
functions are legal to call inside these class-based wait and poll
functions.

however, I'm really excited you used them!
