Subject:  Re:  address syntax

Since source routes are deprecated by RFC 1123 and are often
legitimately ignored, why not just allow IPv6 domain literals (whatever
their syntax) in the host part, but not in source routes?  Even if
there were no parsing problem, it still seems that extending source
routes to support IPv6 domain literals would send the wrong message.
