Thanks! I'm looking over [canvasreceive]'s code right now. I'm curious,
what's the point of the clock member of the proxy? I notice that
basically its only job is to call the proxy's free method when the
clock's delay gets set to 0 via the parent's free method. Are there
issues with freeing the proxy directly with the parent's free method?
