Hi,

I was wondering what others here think about the possibility of adding support for (properly constrained) service discovery through mDNS/DNS-SD (Mac users: think Bonjour). It would seem like it could be a low hanging fruit that could enable interesting communication with devices surrounding the user. Of course, the security model could be... interesting.

Just a thought!
