What you say makes sense.

It also makes sense to me that one could argue that since we're
transporting opaque information we could also include an extra piece of
opaque information to let someone else know what the first piece was for.
Note that I'm offering that scenario just as an example of the fact that
there are at least a couple of potential interpretations.

Because of the language used in the Base S-BFD draft (where it does call
OSPF/IS-IS an "application", [1]), I just want to play it safe and make
sure we're not pointing at each other and that result won't be that no one
does the mapping.

Thanks!

Alvaro.
