Long Polling

When atempting to claim when there is nothing more to clame, there needs to be a way to have the call block for a little while waiting for new entries to come in. Otherwise, either too much load will be put on the server by clients quickly retrying, or clients just have to be slow to react to new messages.

Whiteboard
We could have a (configurable) period, say 30 seconds. That would improve latency while keeping the number of concurrent connections to a minimum.
Though we have websocket now, this feature for http transport is still valid and good to have. --flwang
