mmm, not really
maybe i missing somehting, but i understnad that the scope of the design 
team is limited to the automatic update of the rfc3484 policy table, and 
they are not dealing with the issue of how the properly select the 
source address, for instance, in the case that you need to retry due to 
ingress filtering and the like
