Isn't there really three options and not just two:

1) One can support targeting only

2) One can support targeting and routing

3) One can support neither

Given that we have as part of our charter and several requirements
addressing intermediaries 3) doesn't sound interesting.

However, it seems perfectly plausible to define a processing model that
takes into account targeting without actually defining routing. As an
example this is in fact what SOAP does. Once you have the targeting, it
appears that pretty much anything else including routing can be built on
top. Unless we can find proof that this is not the case then I would favor
1).
