I don't have a strong preference.  Or really any preference, except
maybe generally favoring interface stability -- ie keep doing what we've
been doing and leave src_addr as optional.  OTOH we could kill the
never-triggered test for src_addr and follow experience with the
interface.  Basically I don't know... whatever you'd rather do is fine.
