The goal of supporting "all protocols" is admirable, but impossible. The protocol used for virtual world communication will always explicitly or implicitly affect the architecture of the system as a whole.
MXP was created to allow virtual worlds to be architected properly. One example of this is the way avatars are treated just like other objects owned by participants and possessing awareness bounds. This is an important principle and should affect the architecture of the server. Ultimately there should be one protocol. Think about it... how many alternatives to HTTP are there?
