OK, but you can have an opaque pointer in the association that can point
to a dedicated structure that's specific to the algorithm.
That way, when/if other algorithms are introduced, they don't pollute the
association and/or outqueue structure. They can just define their
own private data structure and during initialization phase, the can
construct proper DATA.
Remember, that interfaces to this data structure need to be explained/defined
for the API, so that users can tune stream priories.
