Perhaps, but aren't we about 30 years late in getting rid of
the kludge of well-known sockets? Perhaps we should start
solving problems instead of prolonging the agony.
While I'm not sure I quite share your conclusion about ports and
well-known sockets (I can see some tradeoffs in that area), you
will note that I said "take a look at TCPng" not "make the port
number field wider".
