I'd love to have something like this. It'd be really useful to be able to
install multiple versions simultaneously for testing migrations and such.
The main issue I can see is that if the port number is not predicatable that
connections from other machines won't work as expected any more.

That could be solved by some kind of meta-server but that has other issues.

Good luck
