You could make a custom execution environment which only exposes a
particular set of commands relevant to e.g. controlling a mass
spectrometer. But broadly, a kernel is there to be the execution backend
for a user typing in code, not an RPC framework. If you're happy with the
way you use Pyro, you'd probably have to do quite a bit of work to
reimplement a similar interface on top of our kernel/client model.
