Assuming #1 means non-blocking and multiplexing then it has been looked 
into a few times. The main challenge is Windows where there are 
challenges multiplexing socket and handles to process streams at the 
same time. There have been a number of proposals and would need more 
investigating to come up with something that scales and is clean.
