I'm not sure how much we should care about higher level abstractions for this 
discussion.  We should do what's right for IB.  Abstractions that want to use IP 
addresses can either use the standard protocol defined by the IBTA or define 
their own private data.

To me, it seems that the most flexible solution is to pass the source and 
destination IP address in the CM REQ.  We can then define a standard mapping 
from TCP port numbers to IB service records, or change the CM version to read 
into the private data.  What's wrong with this approach?
