Good question, I should probably look. I was lazy and didn't go back and audit why we were doing this. I just coded a routine that I was certain would work. It does appear that we are processing the queue with sk_data_read when we add a message, so this may be completely unnecessary. I will go back and look. If we can remove this bit things should be simpler.
