Re: [Roll] trickle-mcast-04 - Clarify scope value of 3 - subnet-local

So "subnet" is not the right term. I think "network" as Ralph wrote is 
fine but if the disassociation with network addressing needs to be 
clear, why not use the term "domain"? After all, trickle-mcast talks 
about MPL Domains. I appreciate it may have some pre-established 
connotations but from an abstract definition point of view, "domain" 
seems eligible enough.
