What do you mean, unreasonable? It is certainly possible to write and
sign something like "I am a secure host, I am behind an proxy, and the
proxy address ix X:Y:Z". Obviously, that places requirement on SEND or
ND-Proxy. SEND would have to allow a new format, or ND-Proxy would have
to allow some explicit proxy discovery. But it is certainly neither
unreasonable nor impossible.
