Why not? When you do IPC you pretty much either wind passing 
messages directly or via shared memory. AngleBracketedUnicodeText is 
ultimately just bytes+invariants, which seems like a good fit for 
pipes or posix like message queues.

And having two processes on the same machine doesn't ensure they're 
any more interoperable than two that aren't.
