Right. This forces "local waiting only" which allows a much simpler and 
more efficient implementation.  And probably the most common use case.

You want a coarray because the posters would be on other images.  The 
event system would be pretty uninteresting if the poster and waiter have 
to be on the same image.

C644 - allocate/deallocate  disallows  coindexed for any coarray.
