Oh that's fun.

That's also my main test, but in the end it's just a TCP stream, so lots of bandwidth,
not that fussy about latency.

No; one unbroken TCP connection; if you want some reconnect/restart
then tunnel the TCP oversomething that handles that.

Don't think so; libvirt has lots of different modes where it can
tunnel stuff as well, see:
