OK, this is getting more complicated than I'd expected; how about a simpler
suggestion.

The current suggestion is:
   Modify  -incoming to take   'pause' as an argument
   Add migrate-incoming command that takes parsed URI

New suggestion:
   Modify -incoming to take a pause: prefix (e.g. -incoming pause:tcp:host:port 
)
   Add migrate-incoming-start command (takes no arguments).

It seems simpler.
