There's a current pull request for adding AF_UNIX support, which should make all kinds of exciting forwarding possible, since it will make it easy to proxy ssh connections through an arbitrary local process which can do anything to forward the data to the remote end.

The one I am interested in is -D using AF_UNIX, but good to see everything possible working over AF_UNIX. It looks like curl as of about a year ago can use AF_UNIX SOCKS via the ALL_PROXY syntax socks5://localhost/path (or socks5h). It looks like this was added due to Tor using an AF_UNIX SOCKS proxy. I want it to be able to configure network access via standard unix permissions (and ideally, IMO, kicking TCP/IP out of the kernel entirely).
