The value in source_ip SHOULD either be a globally

see RFC 5952 for details.
Correction, the format for IP addresses is in RFC 3986, section 3.2.2. As
we've previously explained, the non-normative suggestions in 5952 are not
relevant here.

That's OK with me with the usual caveat that you need to say why it's
SHOULD and not MUST.
Thanks, this is not something that needs to be written together with the
above proposed text, is it? It just needs to be mentioned on this list.
I don't think we can or should enumerate in the text the things we can
currently think of as valid SHOULD exceptions, because suddenly there
might be others.
We don't need to be exhaustive, but we do need to give some guidance.
