Intermediary routers don't fragment very often. True.
VPNs do all the time however. And VPNs are becoming more
and more common, even solutions where satellite offices connect
to the Internet THROUGH the VPN in order to utilize their home
office's firewall before talking to the Internet.
So we're going to see a whole lot more fragmentation than
we are seeing today (IMHO).
