47 * 1. more configurability for Unix: i.e. how to initiate the connection, how
48 * to check for online status, &c.
49 * 2. add a "long Dial(long connectionId = -1)" function which asks the user
50 * about which connection to dial (this may be done using native dialogs
51 * under NT, need generic dialogs for all others) and returns the identifier
52 * of the selected connection (it's opaque to the application) - it may be
53 * reused later to dial the same connection later (or use strings instead of
55 * 3. add an async version of dialing functions which notify the caller about
56 * the progress (or may be even start another thread to monitor it)
57 * 4. the static creation/accessor functions are not MT-safe - but is this
58 * really crucial? I think we may suppose they're always called from the
