Heh, yes, of course. I also think it needs quite some work in
glustereventsd to be able to use it, and then the clients need to
request the port from glusterd before they can consume events. It is the
way how other gluster clients work atm.

This definitely has my preference too. I've always wanted to try to
register port 24007/8, and maybe the time has come to look into it.

Thanks for sharing your opinion!
