I'd somewhat agree in this as for many types of IOSlaves (e.g. POP,
NNTP) the server generally limits the number of allowable connections
anyways.  NNTP isn't so bad, but I know that most POP implementations
only ever allow one connection at a time.  Configurable somewhere would
be nice, but I can see that turning into something fairly complex as it
could also end up being limited on some hosts but allow more connections
for others.  Ah....dream the dream....
