> In order to facilitate attach operations for a running container, we plan to introduce a new component into Mesos known as an “I/O switchboard”. The goal of this switchboard is to allow external components to *dynamically* interpose on the {{stdin}}, {{stdout}} and {{stderr}} of the init process of a running Mesos container. It will be implemented as a per-container, stand-alone process launched by the mesos containerizer at the time a container is first launched.
> Each per-container switchboard will be responsible for the following:
>  * Accepting a single dynamic request to register an fd for streaming data to the {{stdin}} of a container’s init process.
>  * Accepting *multiple* dynamic requests to register fds for streaming data from the {{stdout}} and {{stderr}} of a container’s init process to those fds.
>  * Allocating a pty for the new process (if requested), and directing data through the master fd of the pty as necessary.
>  * Passing the *actual* set of file descriptors that should be dup’d onto the {{stdin}}, {{stdout}} and {{stderr}} of a container’s init process back to the containerizer. 
> The idea being that the switchboard will maintain three asynchronous loops (one each for {{stdin}}, {{stdout}} and {{stderr}}) that constantly pipe data to/from a container’s init process to/from all of the file descriptors that have been dynamically registered with it.
