I actually don't see a big coverage of Mobile Applications in other use cases. Only the use case Transport Applications is covering the mobility aspect (actually it includes also vehicle networks).
For example use cases like Environmental Monitoring, Industrial Applications, Building Automation etc. use a fixed or wireless network but the devices are mainly non-mobile. May be the sections on Transport Applications and Mobile Applications could be merged. Though Mobile Applications can have different facets which go beyond transport networks. I think Mobile Applications should be kept separate as they differ from fixed/wireless non-mobile applications.

Do you think a separate use case should be added or it can be seen as covered under M2M services? I believe it would be better to expand the whole in-car networks part into a new section on vehicular networking technologies, since this is a part of emerging networks that will undoubtedly use constrained devices and possibly even constrained networks. Logically, in-car networks should be a sub-class of vehicular networks. Furthermore, it seems that the whole section on mobile applications is mostly focusing purely on special cases of previous sections, or based on special access technologies. Just this difference does not warrant a whole section, in my opinion. It would seem much better to take the special cases (like in-car networks) and merge them into appropriate sections (maybe new ones, like on vehicular networks) and discuss limitations posed by access technologies separately, especially since access technology based limitations would impact not only constrained but, to a slightly lesser degree, regular networking devices within those networks as well.
