The current framework draft talks about this, at the end of Section 3.2
in
http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-duffield-framework-papame-01.txt

   "In order to be able to function at line rates, each measurement
   primitive take as its input only a packet itself, or quantities
   that have been calculated from the packet previously by other
   measurement primitives. Router state is not assumed to be available
   to the measurement primitives."
