Urgent messaging is a best-effort priority communications path that does NOT provide for reliable delivery, missing packet detection, or out-of-sequence packet reordering. It may optionally be implemented in this protocol to facilitate an out-of-band transport pathway that may be useful for such things as time broadcasts, exception/error control, meta messages, etc.
