I did a quick patch a while back to support this - see first patch from
http://lists.danga.com/pipermail/perlbal/2007-April/000436.html

We've been using it without issue on a development server since then,
but not actively in production. Brad/Ask/Mark: any forseeable issues
with this method of handling over the selector, and inclusion in the
