Registration happens over AF_UNIX sockets. The underlying file is

It could be tricky to support it in any higher level languages or platforms

Yes, but presumably those languages don't have support of SCM_RIGHTS
too (i.e. a way to send file descriptor). What languages do you mean?
Java?

If you are talking about Windows, then both file descriptor (handle?)
passing and registration should be done in some other way there (but
should be possible AFAIK).
I have investigated Windows support for passing handles around in the past and IIRC I have found some mechanism to do that.
