So I am not against putting a range restriction on those INDEX objects
to try and meet the 128 subid concern.
What I worry about is that they make the range to be just OK for the
two protocols they currently support. If the range were (0..32) that would
be fine with me. SO iwe ever would get an IPvx that has 32 octets for
address space, it would still work.

Does that calrification help?
