I ended up doing that.

It's basically a MAX_MSGS that it being populated trying to find
available un-cleaned and unused easies that also have a MAX_EASIES.
They all use the same handle to write the data which is being read
when the global loop of the app finds that the multi has a new handle
completed.

It just for Google Translating game chat (with a common global loop
for game logic) so it appears to suit it that way.
