 that was/is kindof orthoginal to the question... would the sidr plan
for routing security have been a help in this event?  nice to know 
unsecured IPv6 took some of the load when the unsecured IPv4 path
failed. 

 the answer seems to be NO, it would not have helped and would have actually
contributed to network instability with large numbers of validation requests
sent to the sidr/ca nodes...
