<pre>I haven't tried this in practice, but it seems that the server doesn't check
whether the sink input's or source output's resampler supports rate changes
when a client sends a request to change the stream's rate. When using libpulse,
invalid rate changes are filtered at client side, but a malicious client can
talk to the server without using libpulse.</pre>
