Thank you for opening this...we should absolutely be able to write an IPC stream over a socket! I believe this is a result of the way we wrap an R connection with an OutputStream and/or InputStream. I believe there's a place where we attempt a seek to see if we can get a random access file (needed for some types of files like parquet and arrow non-stream files). I think we check `isSeekable(con)` but I think there are some types of connections where that returns `TRUE` even though any attempt to actually seek will fail.
