Obligatory. Otherwise there is no vehicle for any other interaction. This 
was the basis for last week's thread, where it was discussed how to dig into 
a running process from outside that process. You cannot.

Fortunately, in this case the "wait" command is within the operating 
handler, and control can be delegated, and acquired, as needed.
