According to the docs it should be possible to specify an alternate socket 
name. I am unable to use the name 'zdsock' so would like to configure Zope 
to use a user specific socket name. Either it is possible or it isn't.

So far no one has told me how I can use what are supposed to be existing 
features. I've even found a sample.conf which contains this

<runner>
  # Harmless example
  program       sleep 100
  # Repeat the defaults
  backoff-limit 10
  daemon	True
  forever	True
  socket-name	zdsock
  exit-codes	0,2
  # user has no default
  umask		022
  directory	.
  default-to-interactive True
  hang-around   False
</runner>


but no one seems to know how/where this is can be used.

What is the point in having features if no one knows how to use them?
