Coming. The only question is what data structure to hold them.

Clearly it will be an array, since C doesn't have anything else.
A wrapped C++ Vector is overkill. A specially written list or
something would pollute ZMQ interface too much.

The question is: what goes in the array? Buffers, or zmq_msg_t?
Or pointers t zmq_msg_t?

This is non-trivial issue. I will be providing the API extension in 
C land only. But logically it should be done in the C++ core.
