I like it!

Users need something like this.  The extra image/gadget/window overhead
would be worth it.  For another example of a 'patch panel', see the
Interchange screen (although it's a little too simple for large IPC
applications.

On the other hand, I'd like to be able to say:
	1> IPC Emacs [to|with] TeX
and get a one-way or bidirectional IPC port made.

But this is user-interface stuff, and should probably be dealt with later.
