Hi,

Sorry that this comes a bit late in the process, but I think it would 
make sense to have support for the source routing & route recording 
ROUTE_DST and ROUTE_VIA parameters [1] in the HIP native API. They are 
needed for HIP BONE but likely they have use also in other contexts and 
then an application would need an API for using them.

Maybe the API that RFC 2292 [2] defines for IPv6 routing header could be 
re-used for this purpose.


Cheers,
Ari
