Yes.  I'm fine with `-a <addr>[,<addr>]' (I think I suggested it a while
back), but I think Seb doesn't care for it much, and it seems some feel
confused by the order of the addresses (though I find it natural that the
source/local address is first).  I think I'm fine with most anything as
long as dladm and ipadm work similarly (that is, I can deal with "-l"
meaning something different with create-iptun, though of course it'd be
preferable to not have to do that :-).
