There won't be "a table" that the rest of the stack uses.  There will be more
than one.  Service conns and client conns will be handled separately, they
will have different lifecycle strategies, different lifetimes and separate
object handling code.  It's almost worth actually having separate structs for
them, but there's sufficient common ground that it doesn't actually make
sense, I think.
