There's been a bunch of past work done developing similar sorts of
protocols, and for what it's worth I wrote up a mechanism for
using address tags and address rewrites, but unfortunately Cisco
decided to patent it.  Anyway, there are ways of dealing with this
problem that don't require binding the address to the token ("all
technical problems can be solved by introducing a layer of
indirection").
