There's a reason that the existing interfaces all have "stream" in their names 
:-).

The main reason we didn't do "datagram" at the same time is that there's a 
pretty clear client/server division in all stream endpoints (one side has to 
initiate, the other side has to respond) but given the possibilities for 
multicast / fan-out / fan-in with datagram sockets, "just do what UDP does" 
didn't seem obviously correct.

I'd love it if someone with an interest would make some datagram endpoint 
interfaces though.
