The reason I added that was the host management socket. If the DC is local, both HC and
DC requests will come in on the same socket. We need some differentiator to know if a
request should go to the HC or the DC.
Well any host management socket should know how to answer host changes,
domain changes, and server changes; it should be one protocol on one
socket with the only differentiator being the address in question.
For host changes, that host's configuration change is effected
immediately. For domain changes, if the node is the DC it can handle it
locally, else it'd forward on (on the user's behalf, presumably). For
server changes, it'd require that the caller has the appropriate
credentials (some operations, like reads and most runtime-only changes,
can be carried out by users, while others, like server model changes,
may only be carried out by the HC).
