"""A simple interactive kernel that talks to a frontend over 0MQ.

Things to do:

* Implement `set_parent` logic. Right before doing exec, the Kernel should
  call set_parent on all the PUB objects with the message about to be executed.
* Implement random port and security key logic.
* Implement control messages.
* Implement event loop and poll version.
