ok, sorry for not fully specifying my idea. I was thinking about the 
case where there is a single MR and two HAs, in which case, the 
situation is less clear. anyway, i guess that the key issue is the

yes, imho this is the first thing that we should do with multihoming in 
nemo, but for this we need to understand the basic multi6 solution, i 
guess, which is still not defined...
