Can the Message.sender be used reliably to obtain the sending Actor's
gid when using process groups?

Hi Javier:

In short, no. Though it would be a nice addition. Process groups
only communicate with the main group by default. If inter-group
communication is ever needed, sender/gid info will need to be more
robust.

For now, if you need to identify a single actor in a foreign group,
you will need to pass along its id in the message.

HTH,

John
