OK, thanks.  Here's how I understand the program now:

It seems that the responsibility to notify the database that it's no
longer interested in the response rests with the handler---it's not
embedded in the databse abstraction itself.  That means that, if the
request involved setting up some locks, the handler could leave those
around.

Is that correct?
