Why do we have to wait for submit_buffer to finish?
We process RPC requests in order on the server, so as soon as it's submitted we know that it's going to be processed at the appropriate time.
As far as I can see, the client never needs to know when the server has acknowledged the submission; and for the transition it only needs to know when there's a buffer available to render into.
I think of any behaviour that would be incorrect if you treated submit_buffer as not having any response at all. If you tried it, what went wrong?
