OK, there is a point for ICMPv4 whose source is not a public IPv4 address. 
I agree that using 0../0 in this case creates a problem because some routers or 
FWs may discard packets having this address as source.
This should be avoided by coming back to what there was in draft-03, i.e. 
192.70.192.254 
Thanks.
