Hmm, that's an interesting thought, because that was actually one of the possible mechanisms that I had in mind for the traffic manager. That is, have the schedules managed by an independent program that would communicate with FlightGear through a network layer. In the end I decided not to go into this direction after doing some tests and finding that the the easiest way to do it was by adding the traffic manager as a subsystem to the main FlightGear program, specifically because the overhead of managing the schedules turned out to be a quite low. Doing this through a network remains an interesting option though...
