We try to avoid promoting use of inheritance in asyncio APIs, so my first 
reaction to this would be “no”.  IMO pause_serving / resume_serving methods are 
easy to understand and use.

BTW, another way to solve your problem in asyncio in 3.6 is to create your own 
accept loop implementation and use the new 'loop. connect_accepted_socket' API.
