A while ago i worked on a tool which talks the streaming protocol
directly. In the past there were already additions to the protocol
(like MANIFEST), so to support those optional features and multiple
major versions you already have to abstract the code to deal with that.
Having said that, i don't have any objections either to remove the old
protocol support.
