They would each need a scheduler, but that could be very simple.
Maybe just a future event queue sorted by time. On each process()
call, send the ones that apply to the current period. The trickiest
part is handling the memory allocation and deallocation.
Someone (perhaps libjack) could provide a standard set of functions to
manage this, while still doing it all in the client's address space.
The advantage is that future events are easily cancelled, when needed.
