+1 Alia. There's been a lot of confusion over this term. Having gone a few rounds with folks on this one in other forums, I'll point out that what most people mean by application (myself included) is some set of control software (a scheduler, a path optimizer etc) that provides instructions to the controller, which are in turn translated to the appropriate PDUs. Having 'end user' applications request/make changes to forwarding state without an intermediate broker/aggregator acting on their behalf sounds like a recipe for disaster for operational networks, or, as is more likely, a quick hike to the protocol grave yard (followed by a long grave-side party :P) for the wg. my 2c.
