Because of NAT the use of addresses to control where a ticket can be
used from has become difficult at best to keep going, thus many sites
use address-less tickets, which in turn can be "forwarded" anywhere you
want.

The solution to this should be to require that a ticket be used in
conjunction with another ticket for a client host principal
corresponding to the host that the ticket is tied down to.  This would
have to be done via authorization-data elements in the Authenticator.
