Comment (by eighthave):

 @tla, @n8fr8, and I do not know the guts of the existing TUN
 implementations, so we're open to how this might be implemented.  I
 imagine pulling in some parts of TCP will be a requirement since TUN is
 all about providing a TCP network interface.  As far as I know, this could
 also be implemented in Rust.  That should be workable on Android and iOS,
 though C would be easier to integrate.
