Configure Actor mailbox as a BlockingDeque

Use: BoundedTransferQueue => http://github.com/jboner/akka/blob/master/akka-actor/src/main/scala/dispatch/Queues.scala#L12

Should we solve it by adding this?

// if mailboxSize is negative then use unbounded, if positive create a
BlockingDeque with the size
def actorOf[T <: Actor: Manifest](mailboxSize = -1): ActorRef = 
  new LocalActorRef(manifest[T].erasure.asInstanceOf[Class[_ <: Actor]], mailboxSize)

val actor = actorOf[MyActor](mailboxSize = 100)

Or should we do as we do with the new STM stuff? E.g. accept an
implicit ActorRefConfig that can do more?

def actorOf[T <: Actor: Manifest](implicit config: ActorRefConfig = DefaultActorRefConfig()): ActorRef =
 new LocalActorRef(manifest[T].erasure.asInstanceOf[Class[_ <: Actor]], config)

Thoughts?

What is the purpose/feature of this ticket?

blocking sends?

It feels like we probably need to make sure we're not mixing apples and pears for the same dispatcher, no?

Is there a usecase where a non-timeouted block is desired?
