But the abstraction level is too deep and it prevents access to 
important and relevant information.


If there is a TCP server, an error on the listening socket should lead 
to process termination because the listening socket is potentially 
permanently dysfunctional. But an error on a client socket can 
potentially be tolerated.


As far as I can see, ZMQ doesn't allow such error handling.
