Ack, we started pondering cases which are obviously not-net-worthy
but still WIP and also hard to say if all of the fixes you'll write 
would fall under it. So just prepare for net with Fixes tags and we'll
route the patches accordingly.

(some kind of "can't be triggered by an unprivileged user" would seem
like an obvious delineation but "can't be" implies we explore all the
possible options of triggering, maybe Mythos can think of something we
can't, and (b) "unprivileged" is not as strong as we'd like if we
have to assume that people are crazy enough to allow user netns :/)
