Eep!  This is definitely broken.

The simplest way to explain why is: what if you are writing a chat 
program, and your GUI might need to be notified about network events at 
any time?  Deferreds are just one way that Twisted can trigger events. 
There are lots of other callbacks which your program might be interested in.
