I don't understand what Unix sockets provide that a vEth pair can't provide.

Yes, the vEth pair would require IPs and neighbor configurations.  But I 
don't see that as a blocker.  I would expect that it's possible to apply 
filters to control what is imported and exported.  I would also expect 
similar filters to be applied to the Unix sockets too.

I'm sure there's something that I'm missing.  But I don't know what it is.
