David,

Interesting that he thrust of current IRTF delay-tolerant
networking work has effectively turned your statement below
on its head, in believing that there is no need for reliability
at the top of the network, and no need for location at the top
of the network, either.

How the network base assures sufficient reliability and assures
that endpoint identifiers map to something meaningful would seem
to be open problems...
