:Yeah... servers are one to many clients.  No two servers should have

    That's on purpose.  There is a flag, CAPS_EXCL, that can be used to
    disallow namespace overloading.  Namespace overloading is useful when
    restarting a service because it allows the new service to register
    its port before the old service is killed.  Clients then only see a
    single interruption and can immediately (successfully) reconnect.
