FOlks,
The requirements doc does not say anything about whether changing in the
routing system for the future should or should not entail changes in the
forwarding paradigm.
History has shown that CIDR, subnet masking and MPLS-style
significant control plane changes have involved changes in the data plane,
and in some cases mandatory...
I believe we should leave the door open for such changes, but carefully
police them
