    I haven't fully digested this yet. But, I'll voice my distaste for
    implementing things that just seem to "Make Sense". That's a model that
    has been used and is used by other operating systems and those of us who
    watch packets can attest that things that "Make Sense" often don't and
    likely would have benefitted by a bit more thought and a bit more
    vetting. I would be happier if something like this were vetted out a
    bit more (written up, digested by folks, etc.) before it went into
    anything but someone's experimental kernel. Just my two cents.
