Yes.

None that I know of.
The socket IO should be part of the base IO-system. Maybe they should
use another PIO_Layer. This will work at least for connected
sockets. Its not clear to me how to integrate the datagram sockets and
the recvfrom/sendto calls.

In principle yes.
But the base PIO system is in a kind of flux. It will be transferd to
an PMC-based garbage-collected memory system. In this area some help
would be welcome.
