I was actually thinking of the daemons doing both.  I'm still thinking
about this, but the way I see it the system should be able to manage
any number of serial ports directly and also talk to its brethren in
implementing a larger shared pool of modems (if necessary).  You would
also be able to do group-wide validation of users and such, naturally.
