         \todo Add readline support
         \todo Add interactivity detection using timeout
+        \idea To support blocking commands, we could give the Client 'suspend()' and 'resume()'
+            members. suspend() would probably throw some kind of exception to transfer control back
+            to the Client instance. on resume(), the command would be called again, maybe setting
+            some flag or something. Example for use: Host name resolution: Here we can just built
+            our own little host-name cache. When the name is not found, we ask the resolver to
+            resolve it and call 'resume' when the name is found. Since it is in the cache now, the
+            command will now complete.
