For the R1bis message, it would result in a reduction of security, since
anyone knowing the context tag value could tear down a context even if
he is not located along the path. this could be enough, though
So, the question is general for all the spec, should we support control
messages from unknown locators?
This makes me very nervous that we'd be opening a fairly big security
hole that would be quite painful to close.
