It doesn't seem possible as far as I can see. We have 2 methods in
java.nio.channels.Channels:
newInputStream(java.nio.channels.ReadableByteChannel)
newInputStream(java.nio.channels.AsynchronousByteChannel)
Neither ReadableByteChannel nor AsynchronousByteChannel is SelectableChannel.
Sorry, I might be missing something. Anyway, it would be a misbehaving
InputStream as it doesn't conform to the spec.
