I also believe this is a useful thing to have. I'm not 100% sure this ioctl is the way to go, but it seems reasonable. This directly corresponds to writing deleteTcb to the tcpConnectionState variable in the TCP MIB (RFC 4022). I don't think it constitutes a protocol violation.
Responding to myself in good form :P I'll add that there are other ways to do this currently but all I know of are hackish, f.e. using a raw socket to send RST packets to yourself. -John
