I meant a destination option *before* both the routing and fragment headers per
Section 4.1 of RFC8200. But regardless, I no
Tom, it might also be helpful to think of the new HBH option as a "Don't
Fragment (DF)" flag
for IPv6. If the option is absent, then it is the equivalent of DF=1 and the
network is not
permitted to fragment. If the option is present, then it is DF=0 and the
network can
fragment if necessary.

There is a test that the sender uses to determine whether the receiver
recognizes
the option.

Tom, I do not want to add a new type of Fragment Header for either IPv6 or
IPv4; I like the
existing IPv6 Fragment Header the way it is. And for IPv6, I want intermediate
nodes to have
an early "DF" indication without first having to parse deeply into the packet
to see if a
Fragment Header is pr
