Yes, the DHCP relay has to snoop the replies.
I've complained about this at DHCwg some years ago in the past, and been told
that vendors X,Y,Z already have snooping code, and it would take so long to
deploy new things, so what would be the point.

I disagree: had we done this ages ago, today, we would have working code.

I agree that we need a specification. But, I think don't think either of the
documents you cited contain that what we need.
Or maybe, I have mis-understood.

(Waiting for Ole to say "OSPF"... and there are some arguments for doing it
this way, and it would be nice to figure out what's in the way here)
