Yes. I think the client should recieve things like

print(stderr, "some message")
print(stdout, "some other message")
exec("some-command", "with", "some", "arguments")

and process it.


The next step would be to have the client launch and daemonize a
server when no server is running (like fetchmail is doing for
example).
