It looks interesting, and if I knew it 3-4 months ago I'd go this way. But
now... The ugly hack is not to make netstat and ps happy but to save the
changes from userconfig, and this works with (I think) minimal overhead.
As for the netstat & co. - 3.0-really-current includes enough framwork to
retrieve this data via sysctl's - one just needs to write the (small)
utilities to do this.
