Description of feature:
Many server software from WWW server to SQL server support UNIX socket.
I want prosody to support it, so I can use something like this in prosody configuration file.
listen = unix:/run/prosodychat.sock
port = 0 <--- ignored because listen is unix:
Potential usage:
Tor Hidden service ===> unix socket ===> prosody

This is something we want.
Previous discussions have been mostly focused around the Telnet console and low-level networking code.
Being able to restrict the Telnet console using file permissions would be great.
The code that manages all network connections in Prosody, net.server, is currently fairly focused on TCP connections. We want to improve that to ease use of other socket types, like UDP and UNIX sockets.

Will there be a update? It is really stupid that I have to manually specify every IPv6 address in my nginx setup, because I'm proxying Prosody and it is listening at ::1 itself and thus blocking nginx

@Daniel Can you share more details about your ideal setup in this case?
