+ * @endcode
+ * is that the sequence above fails if the reply is posted immediately on

+ * until <tt>requestPump.post()</tt> returns and @c waitForEventOn() is
+ * entered. Therefore, the coroutine completely misses an immediate reply

+ *
+ * By contrast, postAndWait() listens on the @a replyPump @em before posting
+ * the specified LLSD event on the specified @a requestPump.

+ * @param event LLSD data to be posted on @a requestPump
+ * @param requestPump an LLEventPump on which to post @a event. Pass either

+ * default-constructed @c LLEventPumpOrPumpName, we skip the post() call.
+ * @param replyPump an LLEventPump on which postAndWait() will listen for a
+ * reply. Pass either the LLEventPump& or its string name. The calling
+ * coroutine will wait until that reply arrives. (If you're concerned about a
+ * reply that might not arrive, please see also LLEventTimeout.)
+ * @param replyPumpNamePath specifies the location within @a event in which to
+ * store <tt>replyPump.getName()</tt>. This is a strictly optional convenience
+ * feature; obviously you can store the name in @a event "by hand" if desired.
+ * @a replyPumpNamePath can be specified in any of four forms:
+ * * @c isUndefined() (default-constructed LLSD object): do nothing. This is
+ * the default behavior if you omit @a replyPumpNamePath.
+ * * @c isInteger(): @a event is an array. Store <tt>replyPump.getName()</tt>
+ * in <tt>event[replyPumpNamePath.asInteger()]</tt>.
+ * * @c isString(): @a event is a map. Store <tt>replyPump.getName()</tt> in
+ * <tt>event[replyPumpNamePath.asString()]</tt>.
+ * * @c isArray(): @a event has several levels of structure, e.g. map of
+ * maps, array of arrays, array of maps, map of arrays, ... Store
+ * <tt>replyPump.getName()</tt> in
+ * <tt>event[replyPumpNamePath[0]][replyPumpNamePath[1]]...</tt> In other
+ * words, examine each array entry in @a replyPumpNamePath in turn. If it's an
