Yes, but for UDP performance we want to handle the case when a socket is repeatedly sending to the same destination differently, for instance by caching the IRE and the source address that was selected. If/when we fully do this, we can also latch the policy lookup.

Is this a common case, or are application writers sensible enough
to use a connected UDP socket?  What's the cost/benefit analysis?
