That does not really work. socket_connect() receives a struct socket_context
argument, the initialized socket. To open multiple sockets at that abstraction
level we need a number of those. But then we need to know about the kind of
socket. We could restrict this to SOCK_STREAM socket types and receive and
argument whether we're "ipv4" or "ipv6". I don't really see how this can fit
into the general abstraction of sockets, sending out multiple connects is
really only for over-the-network sockets. It is not appropriate for UDP and
unix domain sockets, so putting it a layer above it seems more appropriate.

Maybe metze might comment on this? I think the socket code is his.
