Optional Non-encrypted streams

[lanmower]

Some users might want to pipe encrypted streams over createServer, can we have an option to disable encryption to avoid double encrypting?

This is a bit more complicated in practice as streams are paired based on encryption headers. I'm open to it, but only if it requires little internal overhead and prop needs someone from the community to spearhead.

would it be possible to do it based on dht/rpc by exposing it? I recall that having unencrypted streams

dht-rpc does not have any streams what so ever. as said, its possible with work

I understand now thanks for explaining, the encryption keys being what identifies a stream for that layer of the conneciton and dht-rpc dealing purely with dht

As an additional note, I had to use events instead of pipe, you can not kill the whole connection on an end anywhere on the chain, it has to be done transversely instead.
