tempting through it was to throw in everything including the kitchen sink,
we drew the limit at protocols which would actually make a difference to
dealing with the path hiding problem.  But if you want to suggest some text
to include flowspec, dhcpv6 prefix selection over bgp, ND via avian carrier
or anything else, the authors will promise to treat it appropriately and
not think the less of you for it :-)
