Lost feedback on python actionclient about actionlib HOT 2 OPEN

Interesting that there is a discrepancy between c++ and python...

I do want to add a concern here. We send a lot of consecutive action goals. What I certainly would see a regression if feedback from a previous goal ended up while a new goal was send out.

Our feedback messages contain a progress. Now imagine we send out a new goal, but a 99.9% feedback message arrives from a previous goal. We would draw wrong conclusions from this...

On the other hand, if no new goal is active we don't mind receiving it.

Personally I always saw action feedback like I see (non-latched) topics. Information might be missed. Therefor we put all important info in the result of the action. But of course this does not have to hold for everyone.

That's a good point.

Could potentially account for that using the goal_id.

Either way I'd just like it to be consistent across the two platforms which I do not think it is at the moment.
