Jouni, hi.

I think this is essential and *must* be in there. Of what use is all 
mobility stuff if there is no route optimization?

I understand that mobile operators are a bit nervous about that, but 
this shouldn't be a reason not describing/defining route optimization in 
I-D and do it in implementation.
