Making pluggable protocols in the core library is just a very hard
thing. It would require some major redesigns.

People have added transports, and it's doable. They're not pluggable
though, in the sense we usually mean.

I built a simple framework for pluggable protocols over inproc
bridges, some years ago: https://github.com/hintjens/vtx. It didn't
get much attention.
