I'd say yes, the most convincing usecase is with legacy GRE.
Given that, do you need the rest of protocols there?
We can start with just legacy GRE (think about including IPv6 or not).
Given how narrow this usecase is, I'd be fine with focusing
just on this, and addressing more protocols down the road
with something programmable like BPF. WDYT?
