My understanding of "homenet" and "HNCP" devices has always been "every
single hole in the box is a routed port". Now that's my understanding and
not necessarily written down somewhere.
Magically grouping ports into a common L2 network and then un-grouping
them in case one of them turns out to have another HNCP device connected
sounds like an interesting challenge, to say the least :-)
