Specifically, its Bind function would to stash them in a
{connection ID: bind params} hash.  Other ops would look that
up.  A connection_destory handler and rebind would remove them.

But first he must hack back-perl, which does not now provide the
connection ID or a connection_destroy handler.

But connection_destroy gets called for all connections, including
those which never used back-perl. To avoid invoking Perl for conns
which do not need it: The Perl Bind function can call a new back-perl
function, which sets a flag which makes back-perl's connection_destroy
handler call the Perl connection_destroy function.
