It seems we are going in a circle!

You mentioned that this feature is needed for maintenance event and load
balancing. NO? 

The argument, how this load balancing/maintenance feature relies on a
re-registration which is by nature has nothing to do with maintenance
and load balancing.

You said, to inform the MAG that a re-registration is NEEDED you use an
out-of-band signaling. see below from your earlier reply.

"
In addtion, LMA can notify MAG the maintenance operation by out-of-band
means. 
"

The question is: if in order to enable this feature you need an
out-of-band signaling ANYWAY! Why NOT include the LMA address in the
out-of-band signaling? You said because this out-of-band signaling is
VAGUE and out-of-scope.

Is that clear to you? 
My point is: this is a very interesting logic!
