Well, the newbies still need to know about the different kinds of
redirection/assignment methods; what would be nice is if it were
mostly autonegotiated per-host per-service group, and if wccp2d could
setup/teardown the GRE tunnels as required.

I still haven't done all that much with the WCCPv2 stuff yet. I'll be
breaking out the source code in Cacheboy after I finish the next set
of IPv6 changes; the wccp2d code will then use the config registry
type stuff we've discussed and reuse the core code for comms,
debugging, logging, etc.
