The situation where special recovery code is needed by application in
case of xrun is rather weird, in my opinion. Especially when it's
relatively easy to get that recovery code wrong.

I mean, for most things like games or media players, the xrun detection
doesn't even help, and good luck ensuring every application of that type
is implementing it properly!
