General comment on MESH mode.

I wonder if MESH and other modes like VINE should be mentioned specifically
in a standard.  Would it not be better if capabilities, features, and the
underlying specifications that allow flexibility in network deployment such
as Point to Point, Point to Multipoint, MESH, VINE, and others be in the
standard and no special mention of technologies like MESH be made?  It seems
to me that to single out any single network technology only tends to limit
potential network topologies.
