I wouldn't recommend doing this, because you would sooner or later get into
trouble with syncing things properly. Since sharing timers between machines
is more complex than just "re-reading timers.conf" I haven't done anything
in that area yet. This may be something I start in 1.3.x...

There is no such interface. What would you need that for, anyway?
