We're speaking about a "file name handler". And yes, even the
documentation is sloppy with this, sometimes. I'll walk through the
documentation, and I'll make it consistent. Next days.

See (info "(elisp) Magic File Names") , or read the Tramp sources as an
example :-) The patch prepares make-network-process to recognise a file
name handler, if existent. The implementation in the handler (again,
Tramp as example) is not part of this patch.
Best regards, Michael.
