Current nodes could have multiplexing capability, and only use that when talking to other modern nodes, or use the single message per connection method...
At least to this neophyte, it seems that using a test network might be a good idea to see if multiplexing works, but I fail to see how it requires a full reset..

Currently freenet can only send one message or piece of data in either direction on a connection at a time... with connection multiplexing, it can send several different messages over the same connection.
As you can imagine this helps a lot of overhead in connections and whatnot.

Suggestion:
I implement multiplexing and test it on a local testbed of a few nodes.
I don't implement any kind of backward compatibility.
Followed by a larger testbed of a few volunteers' nodes.
Followed by a network reset - wide deployment, without backward
compatibility.
