Well, in some cases normal source address selection rules are going to

destination). In others it won't, and the client will get degraded
behaviour.

Well, as I said I would be perfectly happy to just ignore the MPvD issue
entirely. What I'm trying to do is at least make it optional for a
homenet router to implement it... :)
