    hi!

    why is the connection establishment between client and daemon so complex?
    what the reason for daemon to call back the client? does it avoid any
    particular attack?

    in function SHMClientSetupSession in line 76 the client gets back
    filehandle that connects him with daemon. why all the other stuff with
    random named socket and SYN/ACK commands?
