So I will ask again: If the priority is a property of the I2RS client
(this is how I understand the I2RS architecture document), why would
it be configured as part of a NACM rule as suggestd in section 5.2 of
draft-haas-i2rs-ephemeral-state-reqs-00? Jeff's design makes the
priority a property of the scope of a NACM group.
