You cannot run LockManager and MessageDispatcher on the same channel, or 
else they would 'eat' each other's messages !

What you could do is to set up a shared transport and then create 2 
channels on top of it, one for the MessageDispatcher, the other one for 
the LockManager. However, messages from these 2 channels are completely 
independent, there is no ordering between them, and this may not be what 
you want. Unless, of course, you provide synchronization in your 
application code...

Another option could be to write locking code yourself, using the 
existing MessageDispatcher, so you only have 1 channel.
