Hi Øyvind.  You might want to ask the OpenOCD list about this.  I've
used the DCC as an end user before for sending printf() style messages
and RPC over and it's quite good for that.

I'm not sure how your proposal would work though.  My understanding is
that the DCC is only accessible over JTAG and, if you already have a
JTAG connection, then you might as well use that to debug.
