duplex browser transports that use streams are amazing. I've succesfully adapted both SockJS<https://github.com/Colingo/relay-server/blob/master/handlers/sock.js>& engine.io<https://github.com/Colingo/relay-server/blob/master/handlers/engine.js> to work as transports for a generic message relay server and that was only possible because they expose streams.
