  Sort of.  The UDP packets may be lost, but the NAS *should* re-send
them.  If it doesn't, it's broken.

  Use a non-broken NAS.

  Hmm... the module SHOULD handle the case where a stop is lost
completely (rare, but possible) and a new start packet comes in for
the same port.  I haven't looked at the source to see if/how it does
this, though.

  I'm not using it, but a lot of other people are.  If there are no
objections, it should be declared 'stable' before the next release.
