Outside of block mode with FEC, CoAP messages could be routed through
different proxies.  They could even be forwarded simultaneously through
multiple paths.  Space systems might want to do that.

I think that if ones want proxies that can participate in FEC, that it needs
to happen above the block mode.  More like $HTTP_PROXY with the application
aware that it's talking to that proxy.

Finally, I want to dissuade people from thinking that deepspace IP is just
about talking to ground stations.  I think that nobody wants to hairpin traffic between a
satellite orbitting Io and Ganymede through Earth.
