It is a difficult problem.

There are two competing models:

1. Every Babel router has two interfaces -- one in ad-hoc mode, that runs
Babel, and one in AP mode, that runs a DHCP server.  Unmodified clients
associate with the AP interface, and need to change IP when they switch
APs.

2. Every client runs Babel, in stub mode.

This solution allows mobility between APs, but requires modifying clients.

All of this is being explored right now, and I'm looking into adapting
HNCP to mesh nodes.
