Thank you for all your support!

I think a rationale may be to allow the Diameter stack to store the
remote addresses where reconnection should be attempted, independently
of lower layer mechanisms (i.e. getting the remote address from IP
header, SCTP association, or DNS, among others...).

In any case, thank you for the changes!

Sebastien.
