In practice local and global mobility schemes co-exist.  For example, MIP 
can co-exist with 802.11 handoff schemes (e.g. 11i, 11r).  So I think that 
it will be required to point out specific co-existence issues, rather than 
asserting that the generic co-existence problem has no practical solution. 

BTW, 11r also has a notion of "initial" contact point, similar to an 
anchor, and I believe it should scale to 100K+ users in a Mobility Domain.

Neither have I.
