Therefore it appears we need a way to figure out, for a specific node, what the "indirect PMTU" (i.e. PMTU when relaying) is. This information would presumably be stored in an "indirect_mtu" field (or something like that) in node_t, and maintained separately from the "mtu" field which is set by the normal discovery process. Interestingly, this piece of information could perhaps also be used to kickstart PMTU discovery, using the indirect PMTU as a "hint" to c...
