I look forward to your patches :)

Yes, in the sense that you can easily connect a "regular" client to a Twisted server.  No, in the sense that you want, which is to say you shouldn't use a blocking client within the Twisted main loop.  However, as dialtone said, it should be easy enough to write a non-blocking client; twisted's client support is just as good as its server support :)
