i didn't just came up with them "out of boredom", i have had specific

use cases for these, mainly in rpyc3000... but since the rpyc300
code base is still far from completion, i don't want to give examples
at this early stage.

however, these two are theoretically useful, so i refactored them out

of my code into recipes.
