I've always thought that the mapping system will have to have capacity to deal with broken clients, random LIG bots, and DoS attacks (just like, say, DNS does).  This leads me to believe that over-engineering the management of sending map-requests on a given ITR will likely end up creating more complexity, and therefor fragility, in the implementation.
