That is a much more well-defined problem.
And with IP datapath refatoring in mind, it can be solved by passing
around an IP attribute as a procedure call argument inside IP.
Things are easy if there is only one occupant of each pfhook. If there
can be multiple there has to be a way to name what the different
occupants use to that their corresponding piece on the outbound side can
find the right attribute. And that complexity is there independent of
the actual attribute mechanism.
