[RRG] Terminology

[RJ Atkinson <rja@extremenetworks.com>]

Christian,

I'd really prefer to have "Node Identifier" defined to mean an
entirely non-routable name for the TCP/IP stack of a node.

Similarly, I'd really prefer to have "Locator" defined to be
a routable name for a single subnetwork -- that is never used
for identity.

And, continuing with long-standing practice, I'd really prefer
to use "Address" for objects having mixed location/identity
semantics (e.g. IPX address, IP address, CLNP address).

Cheers,

Ran
