Ok cool. Now, the techie questions:

* according to the draft, the port isn't used as part of the hash, is this
  right?

* is just adding the port to the hash the "right way" of doing it?
  (its a hash, so you want to create even distributions..)

* do people have a problem with this going into squid, with relevant documentation
  being written about how CARP has been "extended" like this?
