- reliable,
- in order.
(the other three are not hard requirements)
i would think that Tstream has greater requirements.
it would seem to require flow control.

9P doesn't require any flow control? That doesn't seem right :-) But then again it doesn't stream, at least in the traditional way I think of streaming. To stream you typically need flow control, so 9P isn't good for streaming in the sense I think of streaming. (yet?)
Fix 9P or don't is the decision to be made.
