Use Cases

Probably similar usecases as the websocket server.
But in general, any time for when its to allow clients to connect to vector instead of having to change vector for each new client. Or other similar usecases.

Attempted Solutions

We are currently running a standalone rust server after vector. that clients then connect to.

Proposal

Either add a mode: server to the current socket sink, or a new socket server sink.

We are happy to attempt an implementation if the feature would be approved.
