Attached is a rough prototype of that idea (only using datconnlimit == -2 for
now).

This would need a fair bit more polish. The tests are crappy and output stuff
to stderr and don't validate enough. The error messages are bad. No docs
changes. More comments about why datconnlimit == -2 is used. Etc.

But I think it should be sufficient to discuss whether this is a viable path.


I guess we need to move this to -hackers. Perhaps I'll post subsequent
versions below
