FYI: i've sent this email to Russell Bryant since i'm wondering whether
this is the right solution.


---------------------
I am wondering whether that removing autoservice in this case would be
such a good idea.
Since the Set(ARRAY()) function is also used in combination of func_odbc
to set multiple entries from a database lookup.
Obviously an ODBC lookup might also block for an appreciable period of
time.
If this is indeed the case, then the autoservice should also be called
during a normal Set(). Am I mistaken?
