This is cool.  Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but wouldn't it
have been cleaner to implement this as a FCP command rather than opening
up a new port?  FCP was designed for just this kind of task, and we
really shouldn't add a new listen-port for every new piece of
node-client functionality.

The intention is that the network wouldn't get into bad shape with the
help of this mechanism, but a more direct reference submission mechanism
could also be supported for emergencies (ie. emailing references to me
for manual insertion).
