This is more than a little bit problematic if we want router vendors to be able 
to produce useful implementations: they generally are not interested in doing 
research, and just ship whatever firmware their wifi chip vendor tells them to.

(Note that this is a problem whatever routing protocol we choose--I'm just 
pointing out that if we leave this to chance, we haven't really solved the 
problem.)
