   Anyway, all this is half-baked -- it needs to be implemented and used
   experimentally to make sure it actually works well in practice.  It
   may turn out in practice that everything I've been rambling about is a
   net lose over using ports as currently designed.

The real test for whether we have solidly engineered a general-purpose
composable I/O system is whether we can easily reimplement socat, and
supply reasonable proofs, or at least sketches of proofs, that our
reimplementation has fewer buffer overflows and memory leaks...
