No P2P in Windows Metro apps?

In the section "Development of .NET Developer for Windows 8" in BUILD, the lecturer mentions that only the WCF functions on the client side are displayed in the Metro profile, we cannot create a server. ( http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/BUILD/BUILD2011/TOOL-930C?format=progressive @ ~ 34: 00)

Does this mean that a direct connection between peers and peers is not possible for Metro applications, and any data exchanged between two users over the Internet will always travel through a non-meter application?

Access to sockets is controlled by the "Internet (client and server)" capabilities, if this feature is enabled in your application, you should be able to send and receive data via the Internet.

Since applications in the Metro style cannot work in the background and are intended for use in the public domain, enabling P2P does not make sense.
