[Filip Hanik] 
That's ok. Non blocking can be done in many ways. As with the sandbox
example, it was done without modifying streams, and still worked. 
So as long as the underlying implementation supports it, I don't suspect
that an API change would change a lot in the belly of the beast.

[Filip Hanik] 
Interesting, what's up with JNDI, prolly something I missed from an earlier
discussion?
