Hi I can open UDP ports in my NAT because I can bind UDP to a port on a device, send messages and then read the port assigned by NAT. But for TCP ports, however, I can't send a message before a connection is established, thus I can't make the NAT open a port for me.

EDIT: This is a feature request, but I forgot to put it in the title.

If I could bind a socket connection to a specific port (not the listener), then send some message out, read the port on the receiving device assigned by NAT from sending device, then close the socket connection, then HostNetwork on the same port that I had bound the socket connection to, I should have an open connection through NAT.
