We are already underway there -- the SER development version has been
changed from FIFO to UNIX sockets which are baby-step away from TCP
sockets.

Other idea would be to use SIP as RPC and simply process some
special SIP messages to do the same. It could be special request
methods, or it could be MESSAGE so that I could use IM for 
accessing the server. We would then gain digest authentication,
access control, and all kind of remote transports (UDP,TCP,TLS). 

It should be noticed that some my collegues don't like it -- 
they think that extra SIP overhead matters.
