That seems like a reasonable solution to your problem.  Because you 
are breaking up your server implementation of "DESCRIBE" into two 
separate events, it makes sense to not handle any new commands from 
the client until the second, 'bootstrapping' event completes.

I don't see the point here.  The solution you've proposed sounds good to me.
