What happens with the existing request at 'rqs[rq->tag]' ?
Surely there is one already, right?
Things like '->init_request' assume a fully populated array, so moving
one entry to another location is ... interesting.

I would have thought we need to do a request cloning here,
otherwise this would introduce a memory leak, right?
(Not to mention a potential double completion, as the request is now at
two positions in the array)

Cheers,

Hannes
