FWIW, some of the conclusions of intarea-tunnels will likely update some
of the recommendations in RFC 4459 (as per section 5.5.5 of
intarea-tunnels).

There appears to be consensus for all of this in INTAREA, FWIW (after
many years of debate on the topic). The key rules are in Sec 4.2, with a
pending update to add special handling for IPv6 in IPv4.
