=> I agree with this. My comment was essentially that the 
applications will need to indicate which site they should
communicate to. Therefore, they would need to know if the 
SL address belong to the "home" site or the visited site. 
Nothing new is needed though as you mention above, I inconveniently 
didn't consider the API extensions for scoped addresses :(
