I'm not sure if this is the right approach, as the change is rather
invasive.

For other uses, we dynamically generate configuration objects to
initiate with, without registering them at the backend. This is a little
more consistent in behavior. The vici backend does currently not support
initiating non-registered connections, but this could be definitely
worth to add.

@Tobias, what do you thing about this approach when looking at the
trap-any branch? What is the state of that branch for mainlining?

Martin
