If they're unrecognized by the time they get to the actual endpoint, I
agree (by then it's too late for the other pipes though). If an
unrecognized message arrives hot off the wire, though, it just might
mean someone is using handlers. (E.g., client handler changes the
message and server handler changes it back.)
