The use of multiplexing to the client bypasses intended security
checks. It was initially introduced to allow callbacks to applets
which were impossible to do because the Netscape browser's security
manager did not allow applets to listen on a socket on an anonymous
port.
Client-side multiplexing should not be initiated and support
for it should be removed. The server-side multiplexing should remain
to be backwards compatible with earlier releases that use client-side
multiplexing.
