Would it be possible to implement the client server protocol into an API

sure, done already. 'domain sockets', the default for local connections
that don't expressly call for localhost
er, yes, but that's not the whole story -- everything still has to go
through the protocol, parsing, marshaling, etc.
how would you implement SQL without parsing, etc? Annamali asked
specifically for an implementation of the existing client-server
protocol without TCP/IP, and thats exactly what the Unix socket
interface is.
