Lorenzo - I noticed earlier emails where a doubt about DHCP-PD RFC 
relying on these to be Routers, or not.

I agree with you the DHCP-PD RFC calls them Routers.  It may rightfully 
not go too deep into requiring them to forward packets or maintain a 
FIB.  It would be too many things to require.  Maybe just calling them 
Routers is sufficient, for brevity.

At the same time, certainly DHCP-PD RFC is not specified with Hosts in 
mind and this is not good.
