Questions about oscit:

1) Why is it limited to UDP?

2) Why do you need the /.reply_to message? A UDP datagram includes the 
sender's reply address, so you just pull that out of the UDP datagram if you 
want to reply. So too, you can get the sender's address from a TCP (ie, 
connected) socket. I imagine that most other multi-bus protocols include the 
sender information with any "message", for example, with USB. So why don't 
you just leave it up to the underlying protocol to supply the sender's 
address (in the same way that OSC itself leaves it up to the underlying 
protocol to supply the size of each received OSC message)?
