Q: is  localAddress.getPort() == 0   indicative that the DatagramChannel is 
unbound ?

getLocalAddress() returns a SocketAddress when bound, it returns null 
when not bound. I don't think we should get too hung up on corner case 
that arises when the local port cannot be restored (by re-binding). The 
javadoc sets the expectations that the channel's socket is in an 
undefined state when disconnect fails.
