I agree that it would be ideal to have just one way generic and
extensible enough. I do not know if there are much difference in
that area between the two approaches, though. The RFC I saw did
look more complex and rigidly specified with framing and such, but
that is only the syntax part---in the way in which interaction
between two processes happen, I didn't quite see fundamental
differences. I'd expect it wouldn't be too much trouble to add new
commands to code written using either approach (although I haven't
seen yours yet ;-).
Thanks.
