Actually, as a point of fact, we have.  We've got 75-80% coverage, based
on studies presented at the *NOG forums.  That's significant.  It hass
dropped spoofed attacks from 50%+ of total attacks to less than 5% of
total attacks, IIRC.  Its MUCH easier today to just own a few tens of
thousands of hosts and not to bother spoofing.

I don't see why we can't enforce anti-spoofing on encap, since it
requires a mapping to be in place.  And we can on decap easily where the
traffic is symetrical (that is there is a mapping for the source
RLOC/EID pair.
