are the problems clearly understood at this point?
written down?

that's not SADR. SADR is about _forwarding_ of packets.

I think we have a fair idea of how to deal with the home network being 
multi-homed. i.e. two or more connections to the Internet.
we also have a decent idea of how to deal with multi-homing to non-congruent 
networks, see draft-ietf-v6ops-ipv6-multihoming-without-ipv6nat-05
I'm not quite sure what problem "multiple provisioning domains" is trying to 
solve outwith that.

cheers,
Ole
