All xpl messages will be relayed to the outside world.

All incoming messages will be checked that are an expected schema (e.g.
media.basic, tts.basic etc to filter out unnecessary traffic) and sent on
only to the client they are targetted at (or to all if it's a broadcast)

When a device module starts it will register it's schema's (and details of
clients as and when) with the core. Along with any common port requirements
it has. The core will advise the module of any existing clients at startup
to.

Yep, see above.

This is one (of many) reason the database messages won't be xpl, as they
should only be internal.
