Paul have you floated this by idr? I think it would be good to put together a draft and throw it out there for feedback before committing anything.

Well, I guess that depends on whether people think it's useful.

I certainly think it'd be useful to be able to change the decision process, including the default. Having BGP speakers be able to help minimise the risks to operators and help deployment (clearly defined behaviour on mismatch, rather than unknown weird behaviour) seems like it could be useful.

Question is, whether others agree. I thought it'd be good to get opinion on that here first, by posting a patch, before seeing about a draft. :)

Also, on practicalities, if we wanted to apply that patch it'd be good to have an assigned capability code. Otherwise, it'd need another tweak to add some magic to the cap to differentiate our private-vendor cap for that code from any others. ;)
