Has the same problem as "rmt", "remote", "far", and "eventual": The guard we 
need does not say the reference is remote, far, or eventual, just that it 
might be. "Possibly eventual", "possibly remote", or "not necessarily near" 
captures what we'd ideally like to say, but we're still at a loss for a short 
name that expresses any of these.
