Do you think it makes sense to just delay setting the ASSURED bit
until after the 2s period?

That would work for this particular use case.... but I don't know if
it's a good idea.
I did of course think of it, but the commit message seemed to imply
there's a good reason to set the assured bit earlier rather than
later...

A udp flow becoming bidirectional seems like an important event to
notify about...
Afterall, the UDP flow might become a stream 29 seconds after it
becomes bidirectional...

Oh right, never mind then.
