+/**
+ * Interface for opening {@link OperatedClientConnection connections}.
+ * This interface encapsulates the logic to create sockets and to
+ * open or update the connection with the new socket.
+ * Implementations will most likely make use of
+ * {@link SocketFactory socket factories}.
+ * <br/>
+ * The methods in this interface allow the creation of plain and layered
+ * sockets. Creating a tunnelled connection through a proxy, however,
+ * is not within the scope of the operator.
