Well, we have some prioritisation that occurs through the (ordered) algorithm described in the RFC, that may be fine tuned by the policy table.

If a site wished to forbid the use of certain source addresses, where else would this be done?

One example might be privacy addresses.    Another might be 6to4 addresses (since these currently are almost always rogue RA prefixes in an enterprise network) for non-6to4 destinations.
