--------------------------+----------------------------
 If a Deferred goes out of scope without being returned (or passed into a
 method that is intended to consume it such as
 {{{deferredutil.eventual_chain}}}), that's usually a bug. Write a static
 analysis using {{{compiler.ast}}} to catch such bugs.
