Comment (by jsiwek):
> - can't this potentially generate a lot of reporter messages when there
are a large number of writes going to the second one?
Yes.
> - what would you think about "auto-renaming": if we detect a writer/path
combination to be already taken, we rename the path to something unique
("http-2") and then proceed as normal?
Sounds like it could work well and fixes your above concern (just warn
once when auto-renaming), are you going to try that or want me?
