[issue38285] Asyncio BaseEventLoop can support socket types other than SOCK_STREAM

[Andrew Svetlov]

Andrew Svetlov <andrew.svetlov at gmail.com> added the comment:

I think if we want to support SOCK_SEQPACKET by asyncio we should do it explicitly.

In the other case, we can open a can of worms: we cannot guarantee that all existing protocols are supported by asyncio seamlessly.

Anyway, this is a new feature request. It can land on Python 3.9 only.
