Yes, these new providers are designed to take
advantage of the fact that MPI implementations query
device addresses and exchange this information before 
connecting rdma devices. I will add a note to clarify 
this point.

This is only true if all nodes are connected with a second networking fabric.

Same as above.  Requires out of band (i.e. socket) connections to exchange UD QP
information.
