I just remembered I think the new way to do async tasks in CKAN is by
writing a ckan-service-provider app:

https://github.com/okfn/ckan-service-provider

The new datapusher uses this, for example. So that might be the way to
get CKAN to send out emails when you want the emails to be sent
immediately, not the next time a cron job runs, and you don't want
sending the emails to be synchronous. Talk to kindly about it.
