Sorry, but I do not understand your question.

Perhaps I should give an example to make my statement clear:
Suppose a client A want to transfer a capability to a session to client B.
Client A can copy or map this capability to B and let B invoke the capbility
to get a new session from the server S. Or A can call S and say: "give this
capability to B". Both cases need independently of copy/map 4 IPC's.
