But I think one of the important points for homenet is that many people will just buy "internet" devices, not routers and switches. I've been out of the loop so I should go back and check the architecture before I say too much more ... what is the expectation for grouping ports on homenet devices and is there an expectation that people will buy homenet devices and switches and know where to use them both?

As far as I know, this hasn't been discussed that much. From a quick look in the arch document, there are all kinds of examples. Looking for instance at 3.2.2.1 we have all kinds of topologies, from router-router links without any hosts on it, to subnets with 2 hosts on them, to shared networks used to inerconnect routers. From what I remember and what I can see the document stating, the solution is supposed to handle all kinds of topologies.

..and, of course, if we solve WiFi-wired for DNS-SD, the solution will likely work for some small number of subnets.

What is "small" here? If it works for 2, why wouldn't it work for 50?
