Is this not supported already? I don't know for sure that it is, but
I was recently reading on the github blog about setting up nginx with
unicorn, and using domain sockets is how they do it:
http://github.com/blog/517-unicorn
Maybe they modified nginx themselves, but from the article it doesn't
sound like it.
Anyway, if it's not included in nginx already, then +1 from me too.
