--- Comment #4 from Jeremy Harris <jgh146exb@???> ---
Another possibility might be some form of option syntax, and a explicit
shutdown=no (with yes being the default) somewhere in the expansion.
The "inet" connect spec would take options after another colon, but we couldn't
really do that for unix-domain connects. We could accept options after the
word "readsocket" - though this expansion item would we the first ever to do
it,
I think the current parsing does not preclude it.

The advantage over the "negative timeout" version is that we can invent other
options at a later date; it's more flexible. Cf. Bug 410 which requests a
UDP variant of readsocket.

I don't feel we should special-case port 80.
