Agree on the subtlety. Instead of an example in the definition, how
about a short discussion paragraph starting as "Each application has
its interpretation
on who assumes the role of ... and hence how to utilize Path Cost

yes, and again say that the application must be aware that the roles
that they have set are to be mapped with the roles of source and
destination implicitely encoded in the ALTO Cost Maps.
Re-adding a comment from Sebastian yesterday, I have the following :
Sebastian: "Btw. "Content Location" would IMO not be general enough, as
we could use
ALTO also, e.g., to find a "good" media relay for VoIP NAT traversal."
It may be interesting to consider other cases such as media relays.
Wouldn't it be worth adding such a use case to be discussed in either
the ALTO or i2aex WG? Do you have one in mind?
There are probably other use cases just around the corner.
However, we should use all energy to finalize the ALTO protocol spec
right now.
