To this end, I will ask a few specific questions:1) Are there any inbuilt messages which a lift app will send to comet actors for any reason other than my explicitly sending them?
2) How, in broad strokes, might you solve the problem of, say, detecting a change on the host's filesystem and pushing that notification to a page through your comet actor?
3) When does a cometactor come into existence?
4) What happens if I send it a message before render has been called?
5) What happens if I do a partial update from an existing comet actor, but my client doesn't actually have the page to which it corresponds open at the time the partial update is pushed? What happens when they subsequently return to that page?
Thanks for all your time and answering my ignorant questions.Best,-Tom
