Hello,

Let's try to define what do we want to achieve then.  Do you want
code that flushes workers not to block when workers are frozen? How
will we handle work submitted when worker is frozen?
As I wrote earlier, it's not necessarily about correctness but rather
avoiding unnecessary surprises and of course flushing can and should
stall if the queue is frozen but let's not separate execution of a
work and its completion with something which can take undeterminate
amount of time.

Thanks.
