A problem with this is, when this is actually about using a proxy, the =
inner scheme (coap+tcp: here) does not predict the form of the =
communication over the unix domain socket (datagram vs. stream).  (Also, =
the proxy could translate from coap to coaps, so there is another =
dimension as well, requiring coap and coaps.)
