Does this essentially connect the frontend and fast-import via
bidirectional pipes?  How is the flow control and deadlock avoidance
supposed to happen (I guess the side that wants to give a command to ask
for information needs to wait until it reads everything from the other
side to drain the pipe before doing so), and isn't it something that need
to be documented?
