Doing network-transparent IPC at the microkernel level is probably not a good idea. In fact it's responsible for some of the problems where are experiencing with Mach: including the overly complicated ICP path; as well as drivers running in the kernel. A way to make RPCs network-transparent above the microkernel layer could be interesting though :-) -antrik-
