(sorry I wasn't in the mip4 jabber room).

This nemo-haaro should be further pursued.  I could come back later with
further support but here goes the easiest.

I some times deal with IPv4 moving networks in vehicles, very often
connecting to a cell operator network.  That network is very dumb in
terms of IP mobility, although very high bandwidth.  The type of
services I'm considering offering to users involve continuous sessions.
 _If_ the operator offered this, and via short paths (not through HAs)
then I'd have much less work to do deploying home agents, designing
endpoint-based RO, etc.

That's why I do support all initiative which may some day lead to a cell
operator offering IP mobility, and RO, and for moving networks at the 
same time.

But of course it should be identified, or reminded, what kind of RO is
haaro, and how much applicability does it have to real deployments.
