Does anyone have any insight on what the handler pgm
would look like?


Some developers will look at I/O handlers from a consumer's perspective. That's to say, some won't care what they look like - how they're implemented. They might just want to use traditional I/O opcodes to interface with Web browsers or Web services or JSON streams, or XML streams, or CSV streams, or Excel streams, or remote SQL data sources, or WML devices, or whatever. Call these folks "consumers".

On the other hand, if you're interested in writing I/O handlers for contemporary device types and stream formats yourself - and offering them to "consumers", then you need to know a lot more detail about the interface.

From a consumer's perspective, I think it would be a good bet that various 3rd parties will be writing generic I/O handlers for contemporary devices or offering tools that generate I/O handlers from existing *DSPF and other types of objects.
