Reactive: Why do you call it the EventLoopScheduler?

Why did you name the EventLoopScheduler so? The name tends to confuse.

It's running a loop that processes events. Names are always debatable and tend to have a history (e.g. Amb) or use a domain-specific nomenclature (e.g. BehaviorSubject).

Many thanks, @bartdesmet. I understand what you're saying but haven't had a chance to revisit the event loop scheduler code, and think of it in this light and then mentally resolve this question for myself. I'll do that later, but thanks so much for the reply. :-)

Thanks for closing the issue, @onovotny and sorry about having left it open for quite a while. :-)
