[omniORB] tcp transport wrapper

Duncan,
    I planned to write a tcp transport wrapper for my own security purposes.
This in order to avoid direct socket handling, so that I can pipeline
connection management and send/receive to/from tcpEndPoint and tcpConnection
classes. I guess this should be a common pattern for this task, instead of
cutting&pasting from tcp like the ssl transport did.
Unfortunately tcpConnection constructor requires an explicit socket, so I
cannot proceed because class giopEndPoint does not publish it.
What about adding a virtual "unsigned getSpecific()" or alike to
giopEndPoint class to access the socket in forthcoming 4.01 version ?
Thanks,
