You apparently consider SHOULD as almost a MUST. I support SHOULD in this case; it's meant for manually configured nodes, really. I certainly want to be able to manually configure my systems _if I want to_. You've convincing reasons why you don't want to implement that -- always use autoconfiguration. (I suspect you're dealing with small devices which cannot really be "configured" anyway).
