Ok - partially agreeing with you here.
I agree the application should not queue requests if the sink has
stopped. But if they do (erratic behaviour by the app), KMSSink should
return false in processRequest() instead of actually processing it. It
can be implemented with state (isStopped_) boolean check or similar.
