We seem to be caught between a rock and a hard place - either we try to 
merge clusters into a single key space, in which case we're vulnerable to 
Sybil attacks, or we give every cluster its own key space, in which case we 
lose the benefits of greedy routing and have to route between clusters 
explicitly. But perhaps either alternative is preferable to the current 
situation: we don't successfully merge clusters but we don't label them 
either...

Cheers,
