I always thought it would be cool if Cosmo had an extension mechanism 
also.  That way you could develop new protocols/object types/apis as a 
Cosmo extension and just drop it in.  Cosmo would ship with a base set, 
and then people would be able to pick and choose the protocols they 
want.  Need an XYZ protocol server? Downoad Cosmo and the XYZ extension 
and you are set to go.  Once someone developed an extension, hopefully 
they would make it available to the public.
