Indeed, capabilities have always seemed to me like an obvious fit for IoT.

Current practice seems to be that all IoT devices connect to the respective
manufacturer's cloud servers. How are they supposed to interoperate? Will I
have to make sure all of my devices come from the same company? Do people
really want their entire house to be under the direct control of and
sending all data to Nest/Apple/whomever?

In my dream world devices speak Cap'n-Proto-based protocols to a
house-local Sandstorm server. :)
