with a coordinated policy across all devices, but ... that is not
guaranteed!)

sure... should someone say: "ACHTUNG!! OPENZ PEEPERZ!! USE THE SAME
POLICY ON ALL DEVICES!!" ?

I think, I thought, I hope that the above message is (perhaps less

their striped hats... (so thus NOT a required statement in an RFC-like
document)
