Remaining Time Removal

I'm upgrading a new project to the current release version and I noticed that the remaining time key was removed from the exception meta info. What is the new process that we're expected to use? That key was very useful for rescheduling calls

In case of rescheduling, can you just use delay?

Well, I see 2 issues with delay. Please correct me where my assumptions are wrong.

First, without the remaining time, I don't have a way to set a delay in such a manner that it guarantees that the request fires, or efficiently fires. It's either waiting an unnecessary amount of time or not waiting long enough (and canceling).

Second, my rate limiting integration is coupled with celery (which doesn't support async). Therefore, having a worker sit in a time.sleep waiting on a delay call isn't very ideal. It was quite convenient to schedule a new celery task on the time remaining field. While I understand that you can't support all design decisions, the removal of the time remaining makes the calls volatile in such a manner that rescheduling them efficiently doesn't appear possible. Even for users running the limiter async in an event loop, the delay is either excessive, or the request must be rescheduled an indeterminable number of times while running a conservative delay.

I see your point! I'll address the problem soon.
