+  o Removed features:
+    - Remove the code that would try to aggressively flush controller
+      connections while writing to them.  This code was introduced in
+      0.1.2.7-alpha, in order to keep output buffers from exceeding their
+      limits.  But there is no longer a maximum output buffer size, and
+      flushing data in this way caused some undesirable recursions
+      in our call graph. Closes ticket 16480.
