Yes, I missed that.  I will look into adding either the technology 
specific block or a specific, but general purpose, layering field/block 
to the configuration message.  This will show up in the next draft 
though i will send the list a proposal next week.

Which reminds me that I am still waiting for a contribution (perhaps 
part of the TDM spec) that discusses layering in detail and proposes 
methods for handling it beyond this configuration message.
