do we want to mention somewhere that the fifo name is everything
except for 'fd:' ?

also how likely is that we will add another channel type that
will need another keyword (likd 'fd:')? I originaly thought
we'd use 'fifo:filename' for this ... would be great to somehow
avoid future confusions

thanks,
