[This attempts to outline an issue that could be perceived as
challenging the viability of congestion exposure work. The goal is to
capture the issue, as well as itemize reasonable supporting arguments
(for viability) and remaining questions to be addressed. Please respond
with suggestions as needed for each section. ]
Viability Issue #4

IPv4, does this cause networks to react badly to new types of flows?
Stifle innovation? Or...?
Leslie.
