This comment got quite bad too with some comments I added later :( 
"However red_marshall_verb calls are followed by either
cursor_channel_send_item or dcc_send_item which always
call red_channel_client_begin_send_message."

This is saying that we have a call to red_marshall_verb, and then a call
to cursor_channel_send_item or dcc_send_item, while the
red_marshall_verb calls currently are within these send_item functions.
