+- Support for datagram protocols, "connected" or otherwise. Probably
 need more socket I/O methods, e.g. ``sock_sendto()`` and
 ``sock_recvfrom()``. Or users can write their own (it's not rocket
 science). Is it reasonable to map ``write()``, ``writelines()``,
- ``data_received()`` to single datagrams?
+ ``data_received()`` to single datagrams? Or should we have a
+ different ``datagram_received()`` method on datagram protocols?
+ (Glyph recommends the latter.) And then what instead of ``write()``?
+ Finally, do we need support for unconnected datagram protocols?
+ (That would mean wrappers for ``sendto()`` and ``recvfrom()``.)
 
 - An EventEmitter in the style of NodeJS? Or make this a separate
 PEP? It's easy enough to do in user space, though it may benefit
