Good idea!
I do not see reasons why protocol must be closed.
I was going simply use Stream class over sockets.
To realize your idea, it needs to make it more accurate.

Process is going. I have transfer all my kernel classes to use of namespace,
and working now on redesign of classes and extraction of interfaces.
Also right now improvement of cache and file management.
Parallel Sergey work on SQL grammar, as I have mentioned.
Today we have it seems resolve hardest task in grammar.
Igor have develop in first draft backup system for Valentina.
But I have not check yet this part.
When I extract File system classes into interface,
Igor will be able start work on implementation of Tree-based file system
instead of current FAT based. This become vital for significant improve of
Valentina speed when it works with huge files >1GB.
