Marcelo,

	As the Subject: line of the thread indicates, my comment
was from a high-level architectural perspective.  Architecturally,
MIPv6 separates the locators from the identifiers.

	Sure the implementation details might vary, but I'm
not interested (right now) in any implementation details.
I'm only trying to sort out the *architectural* or
highest-level differences between different approaches,
for now.

	If/after there is convergence on an architecture, then
would be a better time (IMHO), to sort through implementation
details.
