I'm afraid we don't have much docs for that! :-( I suppose mostly because it
doesn't happen very often.
I think the best way to do it is to take a look at how other handlers are
written, like perhaps the smb support would be similar in style and spirit?
Does NBD actually have a URL syntax defined?
What's the use case for an application to use this?
Setting up and writing tests for it can probably be a challange.
