Armstrong clearly sees the problem. I understand his solution as: Erlang makes local and remote actors indistinguishable, but you should build your own custom wrapper for remote calls.
This seems fishy to me. You build low-level boilerplate over a high-level foundation? To clarify, I consider implementing the timeout as "low-level" and a mechanism like "link(remote_process)" as "high-level".
