We essentially have the infrastructure to do this today.  We have
certs for address delegations.  They can be used to sign server
certs which can then sign "I will be sourcing from these prefixes"
anouncements which can in turn let correct authenticated source
address filters be produced.  This would cover most end site
requirements.
