So where does IP-in-UDP belong? It's a link for IP, so that belongs in
the group designing/using the link. It's intended for IP, so that
belongs in INTAREA. It uses and ties closely to UDP, so that belongs in
TSVWG. But any service *over* a transport is an application, so it
belongs in APP (do we even have that anymore?).

There's no simple answer.

We have IETF-wide LC, cross-area targeted reviews requested by the
document shepherd, and subgroups (e.g., Directorates in most areas,
though it was recently renamed "TSV-Triage" in transport) who already
handle these sort of "multihomed" docs just fine. If that didn't work,
we'd constantly be reshuffling where docs appear, which we don't.
