This looks like it would only need a few extra protocol messages to be
understood by the backend. It might be possible to implement that with
the loadable wire protocol extensions proposed here:

Actually the whole point of it is that it *doesn't* need any new
protocol messages. And that it *wraps* whatever is there, definitely
doesn't replace it. It should equally be wrapping whatever an
extension uses.
So while the base topic is not unrelated, I don't think there is any
overlap between these.
I might be missing something here, but isn't sending some extra,
informational *header*, which is understood by the backend, in essence a
protocol extension?
