A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

<@U2E974ELT> I'm finding it a bit frustrating using channels in their current state, as I'm constantly having to worry about backpressure. I'm also finding it annoying that I can't use BroadcastChannel with `UNLIMITED` capacity, as again, I don't care about backpressure.

I've used RxJava since before 1.0 for Android development, basing entire architectures off of RX, and never have I needed Flowable. Basically what I want currently is is a non-backpressured `Channel`, similar to `Observable` or `Subject` that works for MPP.

It's hard for me to tell, because I don't understand the meaning by "cold" and "hot", but is a "cold" stream effectively what I'm looking for, as referenced here: <https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/254>
