The ability of an applet to create a server socket on the client machine
would be a natural implementation of push and, with a restriction of
only accepting connections from the originating machine, would satisfy
the security restrictions in place for client sockets on the client
machine. There does not appear to be any such capability. If there is,
where is it? If there is not, why not?
