Works for now. However, if new translators are introduced that actually perform chaining on the server side, this method will not be good enough. For e.g., a translator chain like this is possible


Server1                              Server2

xlator

  |

 protocol/client  ------------------ protocol/server


Work in progress translators like NSR[1] will possibly use such a scheme.
