I am not arguing that we should leave the "mobile aspect" out. I am 
arguing that we need to take one step at a time.

For all I know, we haven't even decided if we are looking for one 
solution, multiple solutions, a flag-day-solution or a phased approach. 
Once we are starting to agree on the various architectural aspects and 
analysis, the threats models and get input from other groups - we can 
answer those questions, as well as what the relationship between 
mobility and multihoming is.
