I also agree with Roger's suggestions.

It's a bit strange to see that there is no guard here to verify that `homeCtx != null`, when line 76 implies that it might. My reading is that `homeCtxt` is not supposed to be `null` when `enumClnt` is not `null`. That could be explained in a comment, or alternatively asserted just before line 73 (`assert homeCtx != null;`)

I wonder if state should be final?
