Description (last modified by )
It would be handy to have a portfile= argument to Tub.listenOn(), just like Tub(certFile=) and Tub.registerReference(furlFile=). This would simplify the Tahoe and flappserver setup code that tries to handle port=0 (by saving the kernel-assigned port number in a file, and then re-using it on later invocations).

I'm giving up on this one: we're moving towards more static and less automatic/magic. So I want applications to decide on a port externally, then pass it in to Tub.listenOn(), rather than having Foolscap manage the port allocation and persistence.

I'm still trying to figure out how this would work, exactly. The last time I looked at it, I got myself confused as to which port number specification should be dominant, and how to handle things like "tcp:0:interface=127.0.0.1".
