Part of this can be done, but part of this needs to be established in
testing.

I've already given specifics for at least one potential source of
issues in routing issues. I would like to know what happens if someone
rewrites an IPv4 packet into IPv6 packet or vice versa. AFAICT we
would be send an IPv6 using an IPv4 route, or an IPv4 using an IPv6
route. What is supposed to happen in these circumstances? What
actually happens?

Similarly, someone overwrites the whole packet with 0xff. What happens
when we try to send that?
OK, I will add these tests to the selftest in the next iteration.
