Hm, we set two properties individually but bail out when the current 
combination 
is impossible, which is nasty. It means we have modify properties in the right 
order
(which will differ based on the policy) to make a change.

Do we have any sane use case of modifying the policy/host-nodes at runtime?
I mean, it's just completely wrong when we already have any memory
preallocated/touched inside the range, as we won't issue another mbind call.

I suggest instead to fix this hole:
