# Motivation
While adopting the new `NIOAsyncChannel` type we saw an exploding number of parameters passed to the various connect/bind/configure methods. All these methods had in common that we had to pass configuration for the `NIOAsyncChannel`.

# Modification
This PR introduces a new type `NIOAsyncChannel.Configuration` which groups all four configuration parameters into a struct.

# Result
We can now write more concise methods that use a single configuration object.
