TODO: while correct as implemented, the handling of the
notification seems questionable, since re-scheduling the chain immediately
may lead to multiple invocations of the chain, since it might have been "spinned"
and thus re-scheduled already, and we have no way to find out about that
...can not take a shortcut here, since the timing information
embedded into the POST-Activity must somehow be transported
to the Scheduler; key point to note is that the chain will
be performed in »management mode« (single threaded)
...continue to proceed test-driven
...scheduler internals turn out to be intricate and cohesive,
and thus the only hope is to adhere to strict testing discipline
- decision to favour small memory footprint
- rather use several Activity records to express invocation
- design Activity record as »POD with constructor«
- conceptually, Activity is polymorphic, but on implementation
level, this is "folded down" into union-based data storage,
layering accessor functions on top
