Support custom SocketFactory which does not support an InetSocketAddress

Its possible to use a custom SocketFactory. To use unix Sockets theres exist a project called junixsocket here:

http://code.google.com/p/junixsocket/

I've writte a custom SocketFactory which does create unix sockets - but the code does force the connect to an

InetSocketAddress sockAddr = new InetSocketAddress(host, port);

in connect of MySQLProtocol class - which are of cause not supported and denied by the AFUnixSocket implementation.

I've patched the Protocol class to read like this:

       String unixSocket = info.getProperty("unixsocket");

        if (unixSocket == null) {

          if (connectTimeout != null) {

            socket.connect(sockAddr, connectTimeout * 1000);

          } else {

            socket.connect(sockAddr);

          }    

        }

and did specify the property unixsocket - value does not matter - to the properties given to the Driver class.
After that i was able to use AF_UNIX Sockets.

Would be nice if its possible to get some patch or property switch like this one, to make use of them.
Or maybe use a custom SocketFactory interfae like connector/J does.
