For me the main intent of red_channel_wait_all_sent() is to try as hard
as possible to flush pending data. The disconnection is just a last
resort measure if there really is a client which is far too slow to
flush its queue. So I don't see
s/red_channel_wait_all_sent/red_channel_disconnect_slow_clients/ as a
good renaming. I definitely would do
s/red_channel_disconnect_if_pending_send/red_channel_disconnect_slow_clients/
though.
