we support Realm reports that control all traffic sent to the Realm,
then I see limited value in also supporting RRR reports.

SRD>  There is also a requirement in RFC 7068 to be able to control the
amount of traffic sent to the realm.  The primary use case for Realm
reports is inter domain cases where one domain wants to throttle traffic
coming from another domain without exposing the identity of servers in
the domain.
