The deeper we go here the more evident this is to me, too. getaddrinfo()
feels like the limit to almost all of the issues we've been discussing.

&gt; It's not clear to me that this is the killer app, or even the right approach, \
but I don't see the problem that you do with exploring this: my motivation certainly \
isn't to avoid paying for enterprise-grade routers other than in the sense that \
clearly they wouldn't make economic sense in this application.<br> &gt; <br>
&gt; I do realize that if we made this work in the home, it would have implications \
for the enterprise market in the long run, but that's a path we've all trod many \
times before, and I don't think we should factor that concern into our evaluation of \
what the right approach to the problem is.<br> &gt; <br>
