James,

I was just looking at this draft. I don't understand what assumptions it 
is making regarding trust model. Is this intended specifically for 3gpp 
and its trust model? Section 4 says:

    If a proxy receives a message
    from an untrusted source with the loc-src parameter set then it MUST
    remove the loc-src parameter before passing the message into a
    trusted network.

Are we assuming a Spec(t) as defined in 3325?

And is that enough? The obvious issue is the potential for somebody to 
lie about the location source.

Also, the location is specified as a 'host'. I assume you mean that as 
defined in 3261, where it is defined as:

   host = hostname / IPv4address / IPv6reference

Is it really meaningful to use an IP?

Is the expectation that the recipient will simply use these with a 
whitelist or blacklist to determine preferences? Or else how will it be 
used?

	Thanks,
	Paul
