The problem is that the closest thing to a Unix file descriptor on Windows is a HANDLE. But SOCKETs are not HANDLEs. If all your application wants to do is receive data from sockets and multiplex that then a windows SOCKET is fine. But given you're writing a library which will be used by some arbitrary application I don't see how you can assert that the only thing this unknown application will be allowed to do in parallel in it's main loop with qmf is other network operations.
