I too think that would be nice. What we need then is 1) a method to get
the file descriptor associated with an request and 2) a method to call when
there is data pending on the socket.
I haven't been able to see how one could do this with the current
implementation of the library.

That's my approach too, but it's, IMHO, kinda kludgy to modify the library to
achieve this.
