There are great advantages in using a consistent API semantic across
all languages and having that API looks like sockets.

At the same time, this kind of syntax is lovely.  Are there classes
that do this with standard TCP sockets already?  That would allow this
to be cleanly layered on top of 0MQ's socket API.

The basic single-part protocol is documented at rfc.zeromq.org.  I'm
going to document the multipart protocol(s) later.
