Yeah, the interface is there but there's no implementation for it yet 
though, is it?

AFAIK, the concept of multiplexer is deprecated but AFAIR, when you want 
to run a JBoss Cache instance with 'udp' shared transport, you still had 
to use the ChannelFactory.createMultiplexerChannel(*) methods.

What I'm trying to say here is that currently, I don't see any 
implementation of ISPN-185 that would take the name of a shared 
transport stack, i.e. 'udp', and use that to ask JGroups to provide a 
channel for that.

I mean, users could create such implementation if they want, but we 
should provide one so that they don't have to do so? And where are we 
gonna configure the name of the shared transport to join to?
