I'm building a virtual transport layer that lets you add random
transports to 0MQ via a plugin model. It's more or less designed, am
making UDP and probably HTTP as proofs of concept.

Depending on how easily RDS can integrate into 0MQ's event loop
(poll/select), it should be doable to create an RDS driver.

I'll have working examples in a week or so. The virtual transport
layer is like an inproc bridge that speaks a random protocol at one
side, and 0MQ inproc at the other.
