The discussion on this part has not yet completed in DP design team. I 
am a bit worried writing this specific part down before we actually know 
how we are going to implement on the data plane. The above is not, as 
far as I understand, aligned with the DT progress. To get around the 
chicken-egg thing here either defer documenting for now or emphasize 
more that the above is an example.
