Thats excellent. Are you interested in putting this development into a
branch on sourceforge (until delay pools and deferred reads are in

I'd *love* to put this into HEAD, but can guarantee that without
consistent features with the other comm modules, we will get, uhm, lots
of 'x doesn't work' feedback.
