Despite how things might seem, we gained some substantial simplifications by doing things this way and I reject the term 'misdesign':-) If writing this from scratch under similar time constraints, we would still handle this a similar way. But this suspend/resume mechanism was never intended to last as long as it has - it was meant to be a stepping stone to a more-sophisticated transaction mechanism that we have still not found time to develop, mostly because this existing mechanism is "good enough" most of the time.
