Resolutions of promises *sent over the wire* are requested separately.  
Circular data structure is delivered immediately without any further  
roundtrips needed.

Promises are used *in the process of constructing* circular structure,  
synchronously within the turn of the unserializer, and the end of  
unserialization of a single message, the complete structure is  
available.
