Dan,

The only key assumption (in the LMAP WG charter) is "that the 
measurement system is under the control of a single organization".

Given that assumption, we don't see the necessity of restricting an MA 
to a single controller.
This allows for redundant / backup controllers, or a controller cloud 
(thinking of rserpool, eg).
