Indeed. First, I think you'd have a hard time finding readv/writev.
But if you wander down to msg_send() and friends, you'll find your
operation being rejected. The closest thing is in places like the
src/srv/ka9q code, where chains longer than four have their extra parts
coalesced before sending.

Hmmm, interesting. I'm both a fairly private person as well as not having
a very large ego, which is probably the root reason there's no real bio
to be found on me anywhere on the web. But it's certainly a reasonable
request, and I'll think about it.
