Steve,

Thanks for the clarificaiton and I totally agree that the behavior explained in 
section 9 would avoid the issues I have mentioned.

But,  following is a reference from section 7 (last paragraph of the section) of the 
draft which has got me confused.

" One possible reason for such behavior is that the source
   address chosen by the upper-layer is of smaller scope than the
   destination, e.g., when using a link-local source address and a
   site-local destination address.  "

Thanks and Regards
Narsi
