Hi Koojana, It's true that MSF works with RPL closely. And it's mainly designed for upstream traffic.
As you mentioned, MSF could be extended by having autonomous cell to any potential neighbors that the node intend to have packet exchanged with. The concept of parent/upstream node could be replaced by the nexthop of the routing protocols, I think.
