Hi Till,

the connector API has been implemented by Aris, I haven't looked deeply into 
it. It works both on server and client however I don't think we have detailed 
tests for it and this is probably the issue. We need test and test several 
aspects of it in order to get it right. So if you have found a bug, it would 
be great if you could add a test to reproduce it. Then fix it.

Once you have one test, most of the time it is easy to add another as you 
already have the code and you can quickly find other issues and test the 
corner cases.

Also it makes sure we don't break the functionality in future.

It would be great if you could look into that and provide patches.


Thanks,


	Andreas
