Stewart,

Are you saying:

A correct implementation of RFC2460 MUST NOT insert an EH at any point along 
the path other than at the packet source.

Or

A correct implementation of RFC2460 MAY insert an EH at any point along the 
path.

No, I'm saying that for a correct implementation of RFC2460 the issue doesn't 
ever arise.

Either way, why not add that line to the text to remove any possible 
ambiguity in interpretation?

Yes, we could. We couldn't find consensus for that in the working group though.
I'm trying out the argument of declaring the whole question of ambiguity out of 
scope. To see if there is better consensus for that.

Best regards,
Ole
