Trimmed...
I agree with Dino here.  There has never been a requirement that the 
LISP data plane work with anything other than the LISP control plane.

Strictly speaking, it is not even a requirement that the LISP control 
plane be capable of supporting anything other than the LISP data plane. 
However, we have found that to be useful, and so are going a short way 
down that path (there are still assumptions abou tthe data plane 
behavior that are needed for control plane robustness, which is fine.)

Yours,
Joel
