FWIW, that's also what went through my mind reading Christian.
And I was surprised when Vinnie didn't jump on this,
since he's adverstised his own libraries going in that direction as well.

And even though I have no skin in this game,
since I'm only on ASIO-supported OSes, and not in the MQTT target market,
I think Christian makes a very good point.

Designing for testability is always something I strive for, in my own libs. --DD
