It's not so simple: Bidirectional IIOP _is_ outbound at the TCP level,
but the server is able to invoke operations on the client.
I prefer callbacks with real incoming TCP-connects at the client side. If
the callbacks are allowed by the security policy my firewalls can handle
them. If not I can block them easily.
