The bare OSC protocol is insufficient for the kind of interconnection that
exists between Non Timeline and Non Mixer. Another layer, known as
OSC::Signal is required for those features, and NSM provides a
discovery/message bus mechanism for OSC::Signal. So to answer your question
more directly, this feature only works under NSM. While it would be
theoretically possible to do something similar using DBus, etc., that would
hardly be any easier or more "pure OSC" than the current requirement of
using NSM.

In order to do it without NSM or some other broadcast/discovery
intermediary, it would require the user to manually configure every port
number and endpoint name. Believe me, that's something you wouldn't enjoy
doing.
