Happy to! So, I think if we were to add a function for this I assume we would
want something like this?
fn forward(&mut self, now: Instant, interval: Duration) -> u64 {
self.cancel();
/* Do actual forward stuff here */
}
Of course with some documentation pointing out that this function will stop
the timer if required.
